Toro Albalá Palo Cortado Marques de Poley Selección 1964 750ml

22% ABV. "The 1964 Palo Cortado Marqués de Poley Selección was aged in a solera system of which 50 botas remain. It's a very old fortified wine produced with Pedro Ximénez grapes, aged in well-seasoned American oak barrels. It is full-bodied, which hints at an Oloroso origin, and has the aromas of a very old wine with rusty nail, saltpeter, low tide, phosphor and matchstick notes with a volatile twist. Wines like this are not meant to be consumed by … more

Toro Albalá Don PX Pedro Ximénez Gran Reserva 1986 Magnum

Toro Albala reserve select lots of their best vintage wines for the Gran Reserva label. These unusually rich Pedro Ximenez wines are destined for a very long aging in oak barrels. After filling and sealing, these barrels are left for decades in their single-vintage state. It's during this slow maturation that the wines undertake their delicious, savoury, rancio transformation (though controlled exposure to oxygen) which brings a kind of nutty, iodine character that infinitely complexes the wine but also gives … more

Valdespino VORS Moscatel "Toneles" 375ml

"The Romaee-Conti of Jerez".

Moscatel Toneles is one of the legendary wines of the sherry region, produced by Valdespino.

It is an extremely old, powerful Moscatel that was long forgotten, because there was simply no market for it - up until Robert Parker gave it 100/100 a while back. Anyway it is said to be over 100 years of age (though they don't seem to disclose that).

"The NV Moscatel Toneles has reached a mythical status locally in Spain. It's … more

Roda 1 Reserva Rioja 2007 Magnum

Three tiers of wine have been produced, Roda, Roda I, and Cirsion, all from the estate's 17 parcels of vines, each of which is vinified separately. No wine is made from vines less than 30 years of age. Roda I focuses on the dark fruit side of the spectrum. A brooding black-fruited expression of Tempranillo, the 2007 Roda I Reserva is purple-coloured with a nose of earth, mushroom, balsamic, and blackberry. Terroir-driven, it is tight and firm on the palate … more

Toro Albala Don PX Pedro Ximenez Convento Seleccion 1955 375ml

"One more single-harvest, old sweet wine, the 1955 Don PX Convento Selección was bottled in September 2014 and it had been aged slowly in very old American oak barrels and getting thick and concentrated through evaporation. It's 320 grams of sugar are (partially) compensated by 6.5 grams of acidity. It has a nose and palate of chocolate-covered candied orange, spices, molasses. I'd say the dominant aromas in the nose are dark chocolate. It's very dense, developing notes of very concentrated … more

Bodegas Roda Rioja Reserva 2016 Magnum

All blue-black and sooo beautiful to smell: black animale meat'n'blood, plus road metal minerals gain pretty violet/neralie florals and a lash of mineral. The palate features astonishing tannin maturity, great spiciness with fine fine oak tucked way in at the back, while the fruit runs in the plum and cola range. It's power with enormous finesse and unfolds like a perfectly told story. Really wonderful wine, 100% Tempranillo.

Equipo Navazos La Bota 96 Amontillado de Jerez Magnum

During refurbishments to the historic Calle Misericordia in Sanlúcar de Barrameda (home to the La Guita solera), a number of special vessels stood out due to their size and origins. One such vessel was a magnificent tonel gordo (120 arrobas, i.e. a 2,000-litre cask) situated in a corner of the room, separated from the main rows of casks that were standing by the wall. Navazos had this single large cask filled with a selection of the best Amontillados of the … more

Telmo Rodriguez 'Tabueringa' Tempranillo 2020

A labour of love from Telmo Rodriguez, the 2014 was the first of several vintages they vinified that they were willing to release to public. It was clearly worth the wait because within each bottle is some quintessential Rioja ready to draw you in. The vines are located in an amphitheatre near the village of Labastida, mainly Tempranillo with some Graciano, Mazuelo and a smattering of other local varieties. Clay, wild raspberries, lavender and wild herbs waft up from the … more
