2017 Goru Gold


 Very good Jumilla. Mix of berries, some tannins. Feels like having good potential. A little bit of sugar, but not much. I will buy more if I could find it, bought it at Costco long time ago, probably all gone. This wine would work with any read meat.

Was great wit pizza.

2017 Gérard Bertrand Grand Terroir


One  more good wine from Gérard Bertrand. Generally, I am hesitant buying French reds of 2017 vintage. But this company never failed me before, so I took the risk.

Good overall. In the blind tasting I'd say it's Rhône wine. Chokeberry, a hint of ol leather. Lots of tannins. A bit of sugar, but not unpleasant. 

As many good wines, needs to be opened at least a half an hour before drinking. Aerator helps a lot as well.

Was very good with pizza.
