For the past 16 years, my newspaper, El Mundo, and its wine web site, elmundovino, have been giving 'wine of the year' awards to three Spanish wines released during the past 12 months (one red, one white, one 'other', i.e. either fortified or bubbly or sweet), plus 12 honorable mentions. Since it's put out by a highly unreliable one-person jury and it doesn't try to point out necessarily the ...

Notes from last Tuesday's lunch at La Tienda. Mas Donis Rose 2006 - A rather dark rose. Cherry. Very dry. Touch of oxidation evident. Freixenet Reserva Real Brut Cava NV - Light gold. Very fine mousse. Cafe au lait. Just a hint of oxidative character which I rather enjoy in my bubbly. Good fruit and depth of flavor. Bready, refreshing. Excellent cava. Bodegas Hidalgo Sherry Pastrana Manzanilla...

M A T T H A R T L E Y wrote: I hate there was no AALTO or Mas Doix! Two great wineries which have been among our winners in the past, no doubt. But their 2009 releases were not among their best. Aalto PS 2005 was indeed very good, but clearly outdone in its own region by Alión 2005 and others, while we gave Doix Costers de Vinyes Velles 2006 its lowest rating since the first vintage we have ...

Re: Our 2009 Spanish wines of the year Yeah, strictly local wines, no points... Well, as I said at the top, these are not the 'best' wines of the year in absolute terms, since we also reward originality, great QPR, the rediscovery (or discovery) of forgotten/unknown terroirs and/or cultivars, intelligent innovation, etc. These wines (...

The 2005 Couhins-Lurton Rouge was quite good too, big chunk of it was Merlot. I was there last year with Andre, very, very interesting man. Even went out and saw his collection of vehicles, he owns one of every vehicle he has ever been in, including tanks, amphibious vehicles, etc.....the most impressive part was finding out that the Ch. Bonnet Entre Deux Mers wines were all estate fruit ...
