Pazo Senorans Albarino 2009- Rias Baixas Spain

This is one of my favourite white wines. It comes from the small region called Rias Baixas west in Spain just north of Portugal.

The grape is called Albarino and unlike many other Spanish white that may get too much warm weather this one is stylish and fresh with a lovely acidity.

Pale yellow with green reflections.

On the nose beautiful peach, flowers with some minerals and a touch of lime. The lime is there on the taste as well with a rather good length and well balanced attractive finish.

Goes with seafood, mild cheese and birds.

Albarino Pazo Senorans 2009, Rias Baixas Spain, low price 177, lively good value white from sunny Spain.

Bordeaux- Le prelat du Ch. Pape Clement 2004

This is one of two second wines of the famous and expensive Ch. Pape Clement in Graves. Although young,  2004, this wine drinks really well already if you put it on carafe a couple of hours before consumption. Dark red colour, with a very attractive smell of blueberries and dark berries, its a full bodied wine with firm but nice tannins that goes best with some food. 2004 although not the best of vintages, keep surprising me with good drinkable wines at affordable prices, because from 2005 and onwards there is a big step up in prices.... Grapes; Cabernet Sauvignon 60% and Merlot 40% Price around 20€ P+

Ogier Chateauneuf du Pape 2010

This is a quite reasonable Chateauneuf du Pape (ca 200 NOK or 15€). The colour is medium ruby color which was a bit surprising. Nose of ripe black cherries and liquerice with a medium + body and finish with firm tannins. The wine can be drunk now but has definitely the potential for ageing (5-10 years). Chateauneuf du Pape 2010, Ogier Bring out the steak!
