“The 2016 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru offers gorgeous pure redcurrant, cranberry and tobacco scents on what is a complex and engaging bouquet that keeps drawing you in. The palate is beautifully balanced with supple tannin, fine acidity, packed full of creamy red fruit that makes this one of the most sensual and seductive Côtes de Beaunes that I have tasted in bottle. Superb. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting in Burgundy.” Neal Martin

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

This amazing powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. Tinto Pesquera Reserva 2012 - Bodegas Alejandro Fernández. Decanting is advised 👌🍷 delicious cherry, vanilla, leather and cederbox with cigars. Milk chocolat, forrest floor, laurel. Great lenght and depth Amazing wine!

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
