Atalaya Alaya Tierra 2020

Size: 750ml

Wine Advocate: 92

"Earth, underbrush, and mineral notes along with brooding black fruits inform this wine’s inviting bouquet. Dense and layered. Its 15% alcohol is in balance with the wine’s strapping personality and helps provide for a silky texture and a finish with no hard edges." —winemaker

"The perfect Mediterranean vintage of 2020 delivered a 2020 Alaya Tierra that is very complete and powerful in its style, but with balance and depth and the clout to take the 15 months in new barriques. The wines from 2020 have more acidity and are a little less concentrated and especially balanced. This has 15% alcohol (the 2018 and 2018 had 15.5% and the 2017 had 16%). It has a little more balance and freshness, and despite the fact that the wine is very young and still marked by the élevage in barrel, it should come around with a little more time in bottle. A powerful, full-bodied, full-throttle Garnacha Tintorera. 18,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2021." —Wine Advocate

Nino Franco Rustico Prosecco Size: 750ml

37402
"Nino Franco's non-vintage sparkling Rustico Prosecco is unquestionably the world's finest value in a high quality, Champagne look-alike. The non-vintage, light-bodied Prosecco di Valdobiaddene Rustico offers gorgeously elegant, fresh, lively fruit, notes of bread dough and citrus, and persistent effervescence." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review-A fantastic prosecco for the money! From the best area of prosecco, Valdobiaddene, this bottle possesses everything a real prosecco lover would want : aromas of white spring flower, pear and citrus with flavors of crisp yellow apple, lemon drop and orange zest. Refreshing and silky on the palate, a perfect addition to any brunch! Cheers!

"Red coloured wine, with average depth, showing signs of evolution; good aromatic richness with noticeable aromatic progress of floral notes of violet and red berries, a hint of green pepper, provided by one of the varieties in the blend, leads to a spicy aromatic finish. Medium to fully-bodied wine, expertly framed by well-developed tannins, combined with good acidity and ripe fruit; delivers a delicate, sharp finish." —winemaker
