Casa Santos Lima "Confidencial" Tinto Riserva 2015

Wine Enthusiast
(10/1/2018) "This is rich, full-bodied and structured. It has layers of firm tannins, rich black fruits and acidity. The strong mineral texture gives the wine a definite character while suggesting the wine could age further. Drink this fine wine from 2019."

(8/2017) "The straightforward red 2015 Casar is pure Mencía that is fruit driven and with the creaminess of some time in oak containers of different sizes. The palate was medium-bodied with some fine-grained, slightly dusty tannins and pleasant flavors. One for the table.

(8/2019) "A quiet wine, from the subtle hue of the color and the gentle mousse to the savory integration of the finish, this melds pale apple notes with mineral accents from the lees. It's a blend of trepat (80 percent) and garnacha, though it has barely a whisper of red fruit. The impression it leaves is tight, simple and classically beautiful."

(1/7/2019) "A classic Riesling with tension and freshness, showing oranges, lemons and hints of lychees. Medium-bodied and lightly sweet with a beautiful and bright finish. Just the right amount of acid energy at the end. Drink now. Screw cap."

Chateau Cornut Costieres de Nimes Rouge 2016
90
Our Score
(10/2019) A blend of 50% Grenache and 50% Syrah, the 2016 Cornut is deeper and more concentrated than any ten buck red deserves to be. This over-delivering red gives nicely intermingled flavors of peppery black and red fruits, black olive, roasted herbs and red earth. Finishes with medium tannins and medium-plus acidity. Great to drink on its own or pair with pizza, sausages on the grill, BBQ ribs, tuna steaks - whatever! People are going to flip out once they taste this one.

(4/3/2019) "Pretty, vibrant notes of white peach, white flowers, and salty minerality all emerge from the 2018 Prestige Rose. Made in a crisp, elegant style, it stays balanced and layered on the palate, and is going to be an incredibly versatile rose to drink over the coming 6-12 months. The blend is 60% Grenache and 40% Cinsault brought up all in tank."

Conceito "Contraste" Douro Tinto 2012

Wine & Spirits

Wine Advocate
(1/1/2015) "The 2012 Contraste red is an old-vine field blend aged for 20 months in a mixture of stainless steel tanks (30%) and used (second and third use) French oak barrels. Many of the 2012s I am seeing are rather restrained and somewhat light, particularly at this level. This one is impressive, hardly seeming to miss a beat off of the 2011 (granting that they are not currently side-by-side). At least in its youth, it seems surprisingly full-bodied for the second wine in what is generally a lighter-styled vintage, reasonably deep and concentrated. It is also focused and quite well-structured. The restrained oak treatment gives it a feel of transparency and purity as well. Showing some power, too, it preens in its youthful vibrancy just now. As the tannins gradually moderate, the tasty fruit comes to the fore. It will never, to be sure, be the biggest, most powerful or most obvious red - but Conceito rarely goes for the obvious anyway. It is a beautifully crafted bargain in an Old World style that should drink well for the rest of the decade, at the least. It may do quite a bit better, but let's see where we are when we get there. It may be approachable sooner, as indicated on the drinking window, but frankly, I think this will show a lot closer to peak around 2017. Given the price point, this is quite a fine deal and a very fine performance in the vintage. Among other things, Conceito seems remarkably consistent these days, even when the vintages are not. Drink Date: 2015 - 2023."

Creta Ribera del Duero Roble 2013
91
Wine Advocate
(7/30/2015) "The 2013 Creta Roble, is also a custom cuvee from importer Eric Solomon. Made from 60-plus-year-old vines from an area of Ribera del Duera known as La Horra (Pingus and Aalto emerged from this area as well). This expansive, savory, complex, deep ruby/purple red wine shows notes of new saddle leather, black and red currants, has a savory, medium-bodied expansive mouthfeel, with loads of black fruits, licorice, subtle smoke and earth. This is a lovely, sexy, opulent style of wine to drink over the next 4-5 years."
