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.

2004 numanthia toro Spain Red

Any aspiring collectors should add a case of this to their stash. The 2004 Numanthia comes from a different terroir with a different clone of Tinta de Toro. The vines for this cuvee range from 70-100 years of age with tiny yields of 1 ton of fruit per acre. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in barrel followed by 19 months in new French oak before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. The wine is a glass-coating opaque purple with a killer nose of mineral, pencil lead, wild blueberry, and blackberry liqueur that roars from the glass. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, dense, and already beginning to show complexity within its layers of spicy black fruits. There is immense power, well-concealed ripe tannin, and the well-delineated finish lasts for over one minute. This is a sensational effort which in a perfect world should be cellared for a decade and enjoyed over the following 25+ years. However, the elderly among us should not feel guilty about opening a bottle now.Robert Parker Wine Advocate | 98 RPA big monster of a wine that going to have a very long life, the 2004 Numanthia (100% Tinta de Toro aged in new barrels) is still deeply colored, yet slightly translucent and no bricking. This beauty takes some time to unwind but offers beauty blackcurrant, cedar/pencil lead, earth, tobacco and spicy wood aromas and flavors. Much more polished and elegant than on release, when it was an oak bomb, it still has some wood tannin showing, is full-bodied, impressively concentrated and balanced. It shines today with a decant but has two decades of life ahead of it.Jeb Dunnuck | 95 JDRich and deep, but still holding back, this powerful red shows concentration and balance, offering cassis, blackberry and roasted plum fruit, with dark notes of mineral, smoke and earth and hints of licorice and spice, all wrapped in muscular but velvety tannins. Best from 2008 through 2020. 350 cases made.Wine Spectator | 95 WSThis is the second wine of Numanthia-Termes after the single-vineyard Termanthia, though I'd place it first for its wild blend of sage and sanguine aromas, a primitive and primary nose that's hard to resist. It's a selection from old vines, some over 100 years old. The wine's intriguing flavors evolve toward caramelized blueberries and sweet spices, combined with a robust wall of mineral tannins. This Toro's strength of character sets it up to evolve for a decade or more.Wine & Spirits | 94 W&SDark violet. Spicy dark berry aromas are complicated by orange peel, cinnamon and clove. Medium-bodied black raspberry and cassis flavors are given an exotic accent by Asian spices and violet pastille. The silky tannins are almost overwhelmed by the wine's spicy fruit. Finishes brisk and long, with an echo of cracked pepper.Vinous Media | 93 VM
