200 Monges Reserva White 2007

This is a Sauvignon Blanc of remarkable creaminess, equal in both weight and volume, and possessing great harmony of fruit and oak.  This wine shows the world that Bordeaux does not just produce fine reds,  but that it also produces majestic whites that develop harmoniously in the bottle.

Corteo 2011

A super wine, the fruit of the union of the Gil family and one of the most important New World winemakers,  Australian, Chris Ringland.  Corteo is all power and muscle, extraction and concentration. It has neither too little or too much of anything and its succulent character and sweet tannins make it extremely enjoyable to drink.

Baigorri B70 2010

This is the jewel in the Bodegas Baigorri crown. It is a wine and a half, produced from selected old Tempranillo vines with very low yields. The result is a wine with a fantastic tactile mouthfeel, and a high concentration of fruit, thanks to impeccable quality raw material and the work carried out in a flawless cellar.

In the words of its producer, this is his best sparkling wine in barrel so far.  The Macabeu from old vines grown on a single estate, combined with the production methods employed, give this wine great personality and complexity.  Creaminess, freshness and volume in 3D.
