- Bodegas Rafael Palacios Sabrego Valdeorras 2011 Product #26806 (In Stock)

This 90 pointer is 100% Godello made in steel but with extra richness from four months aging on its lees. Bright lemon, peach and honeysuckle aromas lead to supple orchard fruit flavors with a dash of refreshing bitterness and a hint of tarragon. Fine wine, stellar value.
"Light gold. Intensely perfumed scents of lemon and blood pith, dried pear and anise, complicated by a subtle almond quality. Deep, pliant orchard and pit fruits on the palate, with refreshingly bitter quinine and tarragon notes on the back end. Dusty minerality adds bite and grip to the long, tangy finish, which leaves a note of tarragon behind."International Wine Cellar 90 points
- Clua Mas d'En Pol Blanca 2011 Product #26125 (In Stock)
-

Importer Jonas Gustafasson brings us this fascinating white blend from Spain’s Terra Alta region - traditional Garnatxa Blanca spiced with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and a dash of Muscat. A pretty and complex nose of peach and peach skin with a touch of citrus, grass, and summer flowers. Then rich and zippy on the palate with green peach, Clementine and orange zest flavors. Creamy texture with a bit whomp of acidity to keep things fresh and then a bitter grape skin and mineral. Delicious!

Tio Pepe is the world's best-selling Fino Sherry, and one sip will show you why. Produced by Gonzalez Byass from solaras begun in 1842, this is quintessential Fino sherry - light, very dry, and loaded with aromas and flavors of green olive and almond. A great wine with fish and tapas, serve this cold from the fridge and drink it over 3-5 days after opening. A classic.

Spritzy, seltzery, bone dry, refreshment from the Basque country. Drink it cold with shellfish or fresh cheeses. Pure as a mountain stream!
"Bright straw. Citrus fruits, green apple and herbs on the highly fragrant nose and in the mouth. Stony and tight, with impressive finishing clarity and lingering honeysuckle and lemon nuances."International Wine Cellar 91 points
- Bodegas Laukote Rioja Viura Blanco 2010 Product #25917 (In Stock)
-
-
A brilliant example of white Rioja, at once rich and fresh, showing the concentration and complexity you only get from carefully winemaking and 80 year old vines. With just 3 months in oak, you'll find aromas and flavors of pears, passion fruit and peach and a terrific sense of minerality. A note of vanilla bean joins green melon, peach and citrus on the juicy, fresh, finish.
- Txomin Etaniz Getaria Txakoli 2012 Product #27115 (In Stock)
-
-
If you don't drink Txakoli in the summertime...well, you should. Txakoli (pronounced SHAH-koh-lee) comes from the high hills of Spain's Basque country overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It's just about the most perfect seafood or hot, muggy, afternoon wine in the world. Txomin Etxaniz Getaria is a a benchmark example, blending 75% hondarrabi zuri and 25% hondarrabi beltza grapes to deliver generous aromas of citrus, wet stones and flowers start. Then, it's clean, very crisp, and a little prickly on the tongue (some dissolved CO2) with green apple and citrus fruit complemented by notes of talc and orange zest. Long and energetic on the finish.

A fine follow-up to the WA 91 point 2009, Sylvia Puig's unique take on Priorat's overlooked Macabeu grape. Fermented in barrel and tank, the aromas show white peach, white pepper and a touch of pear. Ripe but very focused in the mouth, the flavors show off nutty orchard fruits, sweet spice, and accents of tarragon and chervil with a crisp, tangy, finish. A wonderful wine for seafood or anything with fennel or anise.

It's hard to find words to explain just how good this unusual white Priorat is. Sylvia Puig has created a complex, exotic, dry white that will blow your mind at table. Complex aromas of mineral driven spiced white peach and peppered lemon zest float out of the glass. Delicious round flavors of yellow pear, white raisin and almonds. The finish is pretty much endless. Yes, it's really worth the price.
