(4/21/2016) "There is a new 'village' red, the 2013 Villa de San Lorenzo, which is sourced from the existing vineyards Chano Villar and Lombano, plus a third one planted some 75 years ago that they purchased next to the new Villarin called Fontairo. It was part fermented in cement vats and part in French barrique with indigenous yeasts. Only 30% of the volume matured in third-use French barriques while the rest was kept in the tanks until blending and bottling. The nose screams 'cool climate red' with some hints of acid berries, something earthy and a vegetal twist; the palate is medium-bodied, with almost unnoticeable tannins and soft acidity. Fresh and approachable naked Mencia. 9,200 bottles produced."

(8/2/2018) "Enveloping nose of blue fruit and impressive concentration on the palate of this expressive garnacha. Lovely, creamy texture, in spite of a healthy dose of tannin, the long finish leaves you in no doubt. Drink or hold."

(6/15/2019) "This deceptively pale-colored rose is quite rich, aromatic and dense. Berry, watermelon, spice and vanilla flavors mingle in a plush texture, with just enough acidity to stay focused. Drink now."

Bodegas Enrique Mendoza "La Tremenda" Alicante Monastrell 2017
92
Wine Advocate
(4/30/2019) "The pure Monastrell 2017 La Tremenda always represents great value and showcases the behavior of the grape in the Mediterranean climate and soil from Alicante. The grapes from 25-year-old vines fermented in small stainless steel vats, and the wine matured in French oak barrels for six months. There are notes of fresh fruit, rosemary and thyme, with clean aromas, open and expressive. The palate is juicy and round, and this is an entry-level red that represents the higher volume in the winery. This wine reflects the changes over the last seven or eight years: they do three tries of the harvest, and the first bunches tend to go to this wine. The well-seasoned barrels also go to this wine, and the vinification is much softer. The result is fruit-driven, with just a spicy twist. 2017 seems a lot cooler in the Mediterranean part of Spain than in most of the inland regions like Rioja, Ribera del Duero and so on. This is a bargain Monastrell."

Bodegas Valdespino "Deliciosa" Manzanilla Sherry NV

Wine & Spirits
(8/2018) "Deliciosa grows at the Pago Miraflores in Sanlucar de Barrameda and it's typically aged for five years under flor. This lastest saca shows a lovely mix of almond flavors, salt and white fruit, all melding into the wine's deep mineral notes. It's substantial enough to serve in the company of blackened redfish."

(7/31/2019) "Black garnet color. Inviting aromas of blackberry jam, roasted nuts, ripe cherry, and black peppercorns with a velvety, crisp, fruity medium-to-full body and a graceful, refreshing, medium-length blueberry compote, black toast, fennel, and caramel finish with well-integrated tannins and moderate oak flavor. A rich and fruity red blend with a peppery backbone. US red blend drinkers and Aussie Shiraz-lover alike will be drawn to this wine."

(12/2018) Petite Sirah might just be the wine Bogle does best. From their home base in Clarksburg, in southern Sacramento County, the Bogle family delivres yet another successful bottling of this concentrated, medium- to full-bodied red wine. Black fruits are here, along with a hint of red currant, fig and cocoa. Just plain tasty!

Cape Point Vineyards "Noordhoek" Cape Town Sauvignon Blanc 2017
91
Vinous, Neal Martin
(8/2018) "The 2017 Noordhoek Sauvignon Blanc, from the Cape Point estate, carries the new name for what was hitherto Cape Point Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc. As such, it has the "Cape Town" Wine of Origin designation. This comes from selected parcels on the estate, blended with 3% Semillon, and saw eight months lees contact. The bright, vivid bouquet features fresh green apple, kiwi fruit and Conference pear aromas that are well defined. The palate is well balanced with bright fresh green apple, pear, gooseberry and light citric notes, a fine bead of acidity and good length on the finish. Very fine. Drink now and over the next five or six years. Drinking Window: 2018 - 2026."

Casa Castillo Jumilla Monastrell 2016
For the umpteenth vintage in a row, Casa Castillo delivers a juicy, forward, massively enjoyable red for just ten bucks a bottle!
91+
Wine Advocate
(12/29/2017) "The first wine in the range is the 2016 Monastrell, which in reality contains some 8% combination of Garnacha and Syrah, cropped from a more continental, cooler and dry vintage. Like all the wines from the property, it fermented with indigenous yeasts, in this case with grapes from different plots, and matured in used oak barrels for eight to nine months. Juicy, primary, incredibly fresh and with a vertical palate, longer than wider, like a hypothetical blend of 2013 and 2015, cool but dry. This is always a great value, even more so in 2016. Drink Date 2018 - 2021."
