Some notable wines here, John. Coincidentally, this weekend's wine of choice is my penultimate Ardanza, 2010. Looking forward to that. I have just taken delivery of two bottles of Contino, 2014 as selected by The Wine Society for its 150th anniversary. The first will be opened quite soon, I think. In TWS cellars I have some special bottlings from La Rioja Alta: 2018 and '19. I will take delivery of a few bottles of the 2018 in the next couple of months. Also, I have half cases of Contino 2016 and '19, which I will leave for another year or two. My two bottles of 904, 2007, now only live on in the memory, unfortunately, but what a memory! My Ribera del Duero collection is down to five bottles of Bohorquez, 2010 and Priorat to a solitary bottle, sadly. I am also down to my last bottle of Rioja blanco (Muga). There is so much fabulous wine to enjoy in recent years from France, Spain and Italy, in particular - and I only have one liver - that I will probably resist stocking up with any more and just enjoy my modest collection over the next however many years. Thanks again for another interesting video.

Thanks very much, Steven! Always appreciate your thoughtful input. Nice timing for sure! Hope that you enjoy the 2010 Ardanza! You definitely have a few of my favorites in your cellar and/or on the way. You are right, though, it would be nice to be able to taste through more of these wines but there is only so much we can do! Hope you enjoy your weekend!

@stevenholt4936 2 месяца назад

@@AttorneySomm Just tasted the Ardanza and it is exceptional - very close to being wine of the year so far (Pichard, Madiran, 2009; Musar, 2004; and Branaire-Ducru, 2005 are the other contenders). It has added layers of complexity (coffee, chocolate, spice) since I last tasted: the finish seems to go on forever. I am tempted to keep my last bottle for a while longer but perhaps it won't get any better than this. 'Goosebumps,' as Wineking would say. Even my (non-drinking) wife was impressed - she always has a taste of whatever I'm drinking. Anyway, part two tomorrow. Hope you are drinking something as exciting this evening.

Thanks for coming to Spain and throwing some light in a country sometimes underrated 😊 Remelluri and Marques de Vargas are also great less known producers

@JabadSBS 2 месяца назад

Also if you came another time to Spain, visit "Izadi" and "Remirez de Ganuza" you'll find modern wineries and true flagships of Rioja 😊

@AttorneySomm 2 месяца назад

Thank you! Yes, I'm a big fan of Remelluri as well. I just haven't had any since 2022. I'll need to change that and I'll also have to try Marques de Vargas. Appreciate the recommendation!

@runkemartinsen8481 Месяц назад

I have tried L'Ermita 2000. Just delicious wine. I've also enjoyed Faustino I 1964,1970, 1994 and 1995. Pingus 2004 was also lovely..

Great video and have noted many down. It was really cool to hear you mention Bierzo. My wife's parents live in Leon and we drink it a lot when we are there. We do drink even more Prieto Picudo. The rose is more known for this grape but I love the red too.

@AttorneySomm Месяц назад

Thank you! Very glad you enjoyed it! Definitely trying to vary the recommendations here! Yes, the rosé turns out well also.

@joe-zp7ge 2 месяца назад

all the great wines in this video are terrific. we just got back after a month in spain(may) and we went to 9 wineries thru out the country. we found the priorat region to produce the most complex and diverse wines . Some are blends but the single vineyard garnache and cabernets were off the charts.. one particular wine that stood out among wines under 200 euros was the PERINET vinya mas del ves. the perinet vineyard produces wines second to none. i urge anyone whose a Oenophile to experience this area where the vines are very old

@AttorneySomm 2 месяца назад

Thanks very much! Sounds like you had a fantastic trip! Completely agree with you about Priorat! Such a special region with amazing wines. There is some old vine Carignan that is spectacular too! Appreciate you weighing in to share your experience.

@mikaelplaysguitar 2 месяца назад

Almost with every new Godello I drink I feel like it might be the best white wine out there, especially when taking price into account (German Riesling might object, though). I still haven't had any aged examples and would love to try some out.

@AttorneySomm 2 месяца назад

Thank you! Definitely a compelling value and lots of excellent expressions! This As Sortes definitely can age for 5-6 years no problem.

@steveP1612 2 месяца назад

Some great wines in there... I'm fortunate enough to have had a few. For the whites, I would throw in the Tomas Postigo Blanco (I'm also a huge fan of their 5 yr red). Had it a few times in Spain this year, and it never failed to deliver.

I'm surprised that you haven't mention any wines from Telmo Rodriguez, Remelluri or Commando G. They produce some of the best spanish wines that I've tried so far!

@AttorneySomm 2 месяца назад

Thanks for weighing in! I'm a big fan of Remelluri. I have featured that producer on IG and in at least one of my older videos (French Laundry Wine List). The wines in this video are wines that I have tried in the past year. Hopefully I'll get a chance to taste more wines from these producers in the near term. Cheers!

@whitelightning2291 Месяц назад

So many great wines here, thanks for sharing! Palacios As Sortes is so high on my list I need to just go for it. Same for Avancia. One day hopefully Ygay...adding Castillo and Romeo as well! Have to promote albarino. Pomares Carralcoba is outstanding, so crisp and mineral with great fruit and a lovely creamy texture at a great value. I tend to prefer LRA Arana of their bottles. For me it has just a beautiful balance of fruit and oak, but everything they make is just so good. Muga and LdH right there with them. Another Rioja I like is Tritium, their Mazuelo and Matiz are excellent as is their Esencia orange wine made in quevri. Pedroso Crianza in RDD is another unbelievable value that is becoming more available. Love Les Terrasses! Martinet and Venus are other new Priorat favorites. Alto Moncayo garnacha has to be named too. I love Veraton it's an amazing value, such a deep and complex style.

@AttorneySomm Месяц назад

Congratulations on yet another exceptional video, and thank you for taking us on this journey through Spain's diverse and vibrant wine regions. First-rate presentation and top-notch material, as always! Elated to see two classic favorites, Marqués de Murrieta Finca Ygay Rioja and Bodegas Muga, in this video. Also pleased to see several wines I haven’t tried and some producers I’m not well-acquainted with. I hope my other favorite Rioja, the Beronia Gran Reserva as well as the Reserva, will be in this formidable selection next time!😊 Cheers, John!

Great question! For whatever reason, I have not had an opportunity to taste them recently. I’ll try to change that. I definitely want to visit their property the next time I am in Rioja. Appreciate the reminder!

Thank you John for these videos. Would you go for 2016 Alion Ribera Del Duero or 2015 Marqués de Murrieta Gran Reserva Rioja (Finca Ygay)?

@AttorneySomm Месяц назад

Great question! I do enjoy both. I’d probably go with 16 Alion. The Castillo Ygay bottling is my favorite from MdM.

@armandofajardo1583 2 месяца назад

Alvaro Palacios, Lopez de Heredia, Muga and Pingus are all some of my favorites. Godello and Mencia are quickly becoming varietals that I continue to be impressed with. Pintia by Vega Sicilia is another one. What are your thoughts?

@AttorneySomm 2 месяца назад

Thanks very much! Yes, I'm a fan of Pintia as well. I used to buy it back when it cost only $50, so it is hard for me to buy at current levels. But it is definitely a wine I enjoy from a producer I respect. Cheers!
