Coma Fredosa 2009
Robust and evenhanded but it doesn't have quite the depth of the Coma Fredosa 2008. Still, a wine worthy of attention.

Ca n'Estruc Negre 2011
Like drinking a bucket of rainwater that's been left outside for a month.

Plavac Mali Barrique 2007
Tomic's 2007 plavac Mali barrique is good but the aging process has wiped out the good elements of the grape.

Coll De Roses 2010
This blend of grenache and tempranillo has been a hidden favorite of ours from Coll de Roses
-
Meteors Llavors
Their most striking label to date in this series, this crianza wine is similar to the 2010 vintage. A good of acidity, its overall well placed for meals, but the body stops a bit short of being terribly deep or defined.
-
Octubre Setzevins
Essentially, this blend of carignan, grenache, and syrah hits all of the same perfect notes as when we tasted it for the guide. As a 2007 vintage it would be best to drink soon but make sure to let it decant for at least 30 minutes.

Finca La Celia Reserva Malbec 2009
Not a bad take on Malbec. Easy to drink and with enough character you won't be bored but there are many other, larger expressions of this grape from Argentina
