Spanish wine in 2021: Top trends and the 10 bottles worth seeking out - Decanter
We share the tasting notes for Lumière 2018: “This is not a sherry but a wine from the growing group of still wines made in the Jerez area. The soil is classic Miraflores albariza, of the Palomino variety, from 60 year old vines. The advantage is that without the usual influence of flor or solera the terroir can be tasted. The partners Alejandro Muchada and Champagne producer David Léclapart have evoked a delicately honeyed wine with drops of jasmine and a clean, saline finish. The wines are made in three-year-old Bordeaux barrels, which add texture but do not interfere with the clarity of flavour. Grown biodynamically”. 95 points
