In the words of David Schildknecht from Vinous, “Austria’s 2013 Rieslings and Grüner Veltliners display exceptionally bright acidity, clear flavor definition and uncanny complexity.” 2013 has given us the stunning combination of healthy, ripe grapes that remain light on their feet as the alcohol levels stayed in check, married with focused, tense acidity.
The Decima Mencia was delicious. We both really enjoyed it. Didn't find it changed much from initial moment one to last moment, was open and quaffable throughout.
Very happy to have this wine in our cellar.

Yes, you intrigued me with your “syrah and pinot notes," my two favorite grapes. Plus I love Spanish wines and a good adventure, especially if it’s inexpensive!
The fact that a case gets a 10% discount at any time means I can buy more of that delicious Barbera on a whim!! Hope your eclectic enterprise is yielding good fruit.
Cheers!
