93 Points - Cam Douglas MS. The Man O' War Dreadnought 2018 is a classically styled Syrah with really lifted spice and floral notes overlaying a more savoury umami character. Underneath the aromatic lift is a layer of red berry fruit characters which lead into a soft and supple palate following with a clear focused acidity and fine tannins, all finishing with a trademark long persistence that is fresh and slightly salty.

95 Points - Tim Atkin MW. San Vincente 2020 is a singular Rioja in several ways. It’s produced from a single, rare grape, the excellent Tempranillo Peludo which are grown in a single vineyard, and it enjoys an Atlantic climate with some continental influences on calcareous-clay soils. This unique combination allows for the creation of a singularly fine red Rioja. Organically farmed, nothing is left to chance here. Grapes are hand-harvested according to strict rules regarding the health and ripen

Highly praised by the International Wine Press, this is a medium bodied wine, with a wonderful complexity of herbaceous and dark fruit notes, firm tannins and a fresh acidity.

95 Points - Guia Penin. Capitel 2019 is the flagship wine from the magnificent Ossian Vides y Vinos, arguably Spain’s greatest white wine producer. The Capitel is made from the estate’s oldest vines, some of which are believed to be 200 years old, from a tiny, organically farmed plot at Peña Aguda, in Nieva.  Over the years, the roots have penetrated the slate sheets beneath the surface and extracted a rich mineral strength from them.  This packs the tiny berries with concentration and complexit

91 Points - Robert Parker (2020). The Quinta do Crasto Superior Red Douro D.O.C. is a highly-rated red wine hailing from Portugal's Douro region. Skillfully blending the classical red grapes of Portugal, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz – it offers freshness and balance on both the nose and palate, along with a robust body, ripe firm tannins, and complex notes of dark berried fruits and cocoa that linger towards a long and elegant finish.

94 Points - Tim Atkin MW.  The Cuentaviñas Alomado 2021 is another wonderful wine from of this extraordinary Rioja bodega. Produced from a single vineyard which is home to vines that are over 60 years old, it marries tradition with innovation to startling effect.
