Spanish Collector Wines

Picture an amazing vacation in Spain. The gorgeous beaches, where the sun massages and the horizon seamlessly connects the sea and sky, as if in a dream. The awe-inspiring countryside, where you can smell the grass even from a vehicle, and you stare through the window at the endless patches of green, disappearing into the distance. Or even better – the absolutely heavenly wine you indulge in with some friends, sampling it alongside traditional Spanish dishes while listening to a playful guitar in the middle of town and absorbing the culture of these wonderful people. Now imagine if you could carry those emotions back home with you in a bottle, and place that bottle alongside many others, each containing a breathtaking sample of another part of the world. That’s what wine collecting feels like – powerful memories and strong feelings, all demonstrated through exceptional winemaking.

Spain has a lot of wine to offer for a curious collector. A bottle of fine, crisp Rioja Gran Reserva to keep you company for years to come and inspire new conquests and new experiences. Some lush, gorgeous Albariño you can drink right now, and for another five years, just in case your eagerness gets the better of you. We understand, of course – who wouldn’t be giddy with excitement to uncork a couple of these fine bottles? It’s as though everywhere you look, another beautiful blend calls to you, like a songbird weaving beautiful poetry from the treetops, trying its best to stand out. There are no words for the strength and aroma of Spain’s best works, no linguistic construct that paints a truly accurate picture of how emotionally satisfying it is to drink these wines.

If you’re looking for only the finest blends Spain has to offer, we’re here to help. As an established wine retailer, we strive to bring together wine-lovers and excellent wines, not unlike how Cupid creates love out of thin air. Join us, as we present to you wines that could bring a joyful tear to the eye of even the harshest critics, and turn even a lukewarm get-together into a party that will be talked about for years to come.

2020 clos i terrasses laurel Spain Red

2020 was a challenging year that gave them a lot of work in the vineyard, but it it paid off. The 2020 Laurel feels very elegant, balanced and fresh, a little lighter perhaps, with perfectly ripe tannins, a little in line with 2016 or 2013. It might be a little unusual for the house style or perhaps a slight change, as they are gradually going for softer vinifications; you don’t really need to extract in Priorat, because the wines are powerful enough on their own. It’s still extremely young and has a lactic touch (that blows off with a bit of time in the glass); it was only bottled at the end of May 2022, three months before I tasted it. Even if it’s the second wine here, it’s a wine that needs a little bit of time and improves in the bottle. Having said that, the 2020s feel more open, expressive and approachable than the 2019s, which are more tannic and powerful while the 2020s feel a little more Burgundian if you like. This has to be one of the finest vintages of Laurel so far. After some time in the glass, the aromatics of the Syrah (which was perhaps a little more this year, some 12% versus 8% in 2019) made an appearance—violets, smoked bacon. Daphne Glorian told me that everything was easy, that the wine was expressive and open from day one and that the fermentations were smooth. There are some 19,000 bottles of this.Robert Parker Wine Advocate | 96 RP
