Bodega El Grillo y La Luna ‘12 Lunas Blanco’ 2013 
DO Somontano, Spain $24.95 14.0% alcohol 
This lovely Chardonnay/Gewürztraminer blend delivers aromas of floral notes, exotic spice and pineapple before caressing the palate with a glorious wash of spice-laden citrus, grilled pineapple and white peach. It’s mid-full weight with good mouth feel, structure and charm. The finish and aftertaste are balanced and brimming with fruit flavour and notes of minerality. Pour with pan-seared scallops or roast chicken. (Vic Harradine)

Bodega El Grillo y La Luna ‘12 Lunas Tinto’ 2012 
DO Somontano, Spain $19.95 14.0% alcohol 
A value-laden gem of a red blend—Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Garnacha, Syrah, it dishes up aromas of sandalwood, pipe tobacco and graphite. Lively red cherry, cassis and charred toast coat the palate infusing the lengthy, lip-smacking finish. Showcasing purity of fruit, good structure—some still-evolving tannin—and promise of even better, it’s mid-full bodied, nicely textured with an aftertaste of kirsch liqueur and black cherry. Pour with grilled strip loin and Portobello mushroom. (Vic Harradine)

Bodega El Grillo y La Luna ‘Grillo’ 2012 
DO Somontano, Spain $69.95 14.5% alcohol 
Opaque, saturated and brooding in the glass, aromas of cassis, cedar and baking spice abound in this magical red blend—Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Garnacha, Merlot. It’s beautifully knit with richness of flavour—black cherry, spiced black currant, dark chocolate and ripe mulberry coating the palate robed with mid-full weight and creamy smooth texture. Firm, ripe tannin, purity of fruit and moderating acidity provide structure and balance—the aftertaste is monumental. Drink over the next 18 years. (Vic Harradine)
