My 🍷 diary

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Mineral del Montstsant, 2018 Quite bold and tannic, but still cool for summer evening because of its acidity.

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Taganan, Vinos Atlanticos, 2018 Weird tobacco flavors, complex but didn’t like so much

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️💫 Bobal Unico, DOP Requena (Valencia) Perfect mix of Dry & fruty

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Glass of an unknown white “Una copa de vino blanco, por favor” “Afrutado o seco?” “Seco.”

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Ysios white, 2018 Very complex, oak-y, citrus flavors. Aged quite a lot, high in alcohol

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Ysios red, rioja, at a level of reserva (but lacks official denomination) Very dark ruby color, acidic, high tanins, well rounded. All in all really great wine. Bottle 35 EUR at the winery

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Ysios, Rioja, Grana a Grano red Hand picked selection of best grapes. Only processed by hand, no machinery. Very fruity (too fruity for my taste), medium acidity. Bottle 75 EUR in the winery. Good wine, but not good value for money IMHO

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Ysios, Finca las Naves, Rioja High in tannins, very dry, strong oak, herbs Produced from a single very old wine plot with multiple varieties (dating to pre-phylloxera period) Amazing wine, but at 150 EUR per bottle you will be paying the story behind that wine just as much as the taste of it.

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Eguren Ugarte, Rioja, rose 2019 Very complex rose, strong fruity tastes, apple Love it! At 5 EUR it’s a steal! Not big fan of rose, but this one is much more complex than your average rose

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Eguren Ugarte, Rioja Reserva, Delicathyssen, 2016 Strong berry tastes, medium tanins and medium acidic Good wine, though at 13 EUR per bottle in the winery it’s debatable if it’s good value

We got a new fancy wine rack to store our growing wine collection. Not sure if I should be thinking of myself as a pro, or as someone that just drinks too much 🧐
