Riba Guda 100% garnacha

A very original wine. 100% garnacha (about 7 euros at the local food shop). Very spicy and original taste. Better to open 3-4 hours before drinking.
G: 8/10 especially for its original taste.
I: I think is a very difficult wine...I give a 7.8/10

Ambari Malvasia


A-(nother) surprise from Mallorca. A Malvasia (a grape nearly lost in the island) from a small village in the Sierra Norte. By M. at the local wine store (don t know the price yet). Drunk with a very good fideua made by R. A first sweet taste that disappears in the mouth to leave a dry sensation. Difficult to forget.
G: 9/10
I: I think an 8.5/10 at least

Gres Saint Paul 2005



A very good wine...a present from french friends.
It was only 3 years old but it tastes you can keep for looooong. Drunk with Fra, Rob, Ir and Gk.
G: 8-9/10 (probably 10/10 in few years).
I: very good...I would say 8.5/1o
