Trebbiano from 2023 was aged in oak

but things are now focused on a unique minerality I've not previously encountered in a sparkling wine and cola-esque herbal thing

Sekt shouldn’t be this good

Bodegas R. López de Heredia, Viña Bosconia Tinto 'Reserva' 2014 Austria Trebbiano from 2023 was agedPlace: Rioja, Spain Grape: Tempranillo + Garnacha + Graciano Vibe: Classic, textural Old school Rioja is a bit of a guilty pleasure but theres nothing guilty about drinking anything from this iconic estate. This has a core of rich fruit and is showing plenty of development now. Were all truffle, tea leaves, and forest floor. The best bit is were not being masked by any overdone American oak or booze. Woo. ABV: 14%
