Spain - Rioja

Is the cult Riesling Clos Ste Hune really that good? Does a 100-year-old dry white wine from Rioja that has not been fortified still taste good?

This time we have wines from Alsace, Baden, Rioja and Tuscany.

There is a great champagne and a very ripe Rioja.

Riesling, White Rioja and Fortified are degustated this time.

The wine of the evening was the 1967 Monte Real Blanco Reserva Semidulce, but we also had a great Champagne and three great reds.

This time: One of the best German sparklings, two amazing Rieslings, something from a new winery at the Loire and Lopez de Heredia in 3 variants.

Thanks to a generous friend, we were able to taste excellent wines before the remaining bottles go to one of the next auctions.

This time we tasted Les Manyes 2008, La Lagune 1982 and the new white Rioja from Marques de Murrieta.

We had to taste some new arrivals in our wine cellars. Since there was fish for dinner, we chose white wines.

We tasted some older bottles from Italy (Puglia and Campania), Rioja, Australia and California. Some were over, only one was great.
