Journeys into Spanish wine
Flor de Primavera - Peraj Ha’abib 2020,Celler Capçanes
At 15% it’s quite a hefty wine, lots of stewed dark fruit, chocolate and some Mediterranean wild mountain thyme…
Ilurce Garnacha 2021 Rosé, Bodegas y Viñedos Ilurce S.A.T.
The colour, not quite into radioactive territory, but definitely no shrinking violet...
Selenita Nit 2018, Dit Celler
“Everything was done well.”
Labros 2016, Bodega Marañones
To really get into the nitty-gritty of Gredos parajes & parcelas it’s essential to talk to the winemakers themselves!
Deunidó 2020, Christian Barbier
Extremely vibrant, full of sappy red fruits and parma violets, with the treble turned up to eleven!
Rubus 2018, Bodega Jesús Romero
At €7.90 a bottle here it’s a steal and worth buying just to do your bit for one of the many Spanish villages that are in danger of disappearing from the map if not for the work of its hardy winemakers.
A Road Trip through the D.O.P Cebreros
The Gredos wine region, as Churchill once said, is “a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma”. Actually he was talking about Russia but the quote suits Gredos wine rather well!
