Cosme Palacio y Hermanos

This Rioja is with smooth red fruit flavours and notes of vanilla and spice. Very nice to drink and recommended.

Ricossa - Barolo

Vintage: 2004
Type: Barolo
Country: Italy



If you've ever had a Barolo before, you will know that this is a full bodied wine that goes great with meat. The Ricossa Barolo is no different with a big bold flavour with plummy hints of aroma.

Michel Lenique - Grand Cru 2004

Vintage: 2004
Type: Vintage Champagne - Grand Cru
Country: France




This vintage champagne is absolutely outstanding. Everything that you come to expect from Michel Lenique but with that vintage taste and finish. excellent bubbles and a great flavour. Not to be had every day though, save this bottle for a special occasion!

Baron de Ley 7 Vinas

Vintage: 2004
Type: Blend of 7 grape varieties
Country: Rioja, Spain



Wow x 10! This wine was for me the highlight of the Tesco Wine Fair 2009. As a fan of their Finca (2004), I knew this blended wine would put a smile on my face.

The seven grapes are blended just right to produce a wine that is worthy to age in oak barrels for three years before being tenderly laid down for a year in bottles. These seven grapes that are perfectly married are Tempranillo (of course!), Graciano, Garnacha, Mazuelo, Viura, Malvasia, and White Granache.

The tannins are rich and the concentration of the fruity flavours is just exquisite. Yummy, yummy! I predict a purchase of a case in my future. At almost £16 per bottle in store, you might think this is over-priced for a Rioja, but believe me, every drop is worth it. Not a red wine for beginners or girly white wine drinkers because they simply wouldn't know how to appreciate its complex formula.

I found the 2004 to be quite tasty; very good value for money. Well aged and ready to drink.

Summerhill - Cabernet Franc

Vintage: 2004
Type: Cabernet Franc
Country: Canada - Okanagan



This wine was picked up in our March trip to the Okanagan Valley. Summerhill is one of the better know vineyards in the area and this Cabernet Franc is a good representation of their wine. Very good flavours of berry and blackcurrent with some woody bouquet and finish. Recommended.

Marques de Riscal

Vintage: 2004
Type: Rioja
Country: Spain



I bought a couple bottles of this wine on my return to England in Calais. It was fairly expensive (as Calais wines go), but it was on sale. What a great wine! Quite oakey, with great colour and bouquet. My only regret is that I didn't buy a case!

Gruss - Pinot Gris

Vintage: 2004
Type: Pinot Gris
Country: France - Alsace




This wine was the oldest vintage presented from Domaine Gruss at the 3D wine tasting session. Because of its age, it has a light golden colour. Upon smelling the released aromas, hints of honey and flowers come through. This is a dry wine but it is also soft on the palate.

Clos Centenaire

Vintage: 2004
Type: Cabernet Blend
Country: Chile - Maule Valley



Lovely wine with a great taste. Old vines performing wonderfully. I enjoyed this red especially the hint of coffee. You need to let it breathe a bit.
