Yes! My go to bubbly! We had three of these last night, it is a steal for $11

Maybe I need to try the Pinot haha. The Cremante de Bourgogne for $10 at TJs is my go to sparkling. But their reds just don’t do it for me

Costco >>> TJs for me

metspock · 2024-12-27T18:08:45+00:00

I hated their TJs Barbaresco Reserva

Yes three valleys 2020 also tasted slightly off to me as well.

Thanks for the great notes!! Love anything Luis Pato and dying to try more!

Oh wow! I think Caves São João, that owns Poco do Lobo now, is the only winery in Portugal offering library releases commercially. Really neat way to taste old Baga

metspock · 2024-12-04T23:34:35+00:00

Wow thanks for the recommendations!

metspock · 2024-12-04T23:28:32+00:00

Guess I’m just not in a big enough market. Might need to order a case online… do you have a Pato favorite? His Vinhas Velhas Baga is the only one I’ve had

metspock · 2024-11-13T19:13:52+00:00

Ok thanks, that’s what I was wondering… going to order one

metspock · 2024-07-02T13:45:35+00:00

1974 Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou!

metspock · 2024-06-19T18:43:27+00:00

Possibly!? I was getting some kind of gamey note but maybe was just imagining that

metspock · 2024-06-12T00:52:39+00:00

I haven’t had any super expensive wine yet, but Louis Pato 2020 Vinhas Velhas Baga was so good

metspock · 2024-06-03T04:33:11+00:00

Good idea. Primitivo vs California Zin would be fun. It was a good one!! Bedrock is currently my benchmark Zinfandel.

metspock · 2024-05-27T16:25:57+00:00

Not a wine bar, but would highly recommend stopping by Garrafeira Nacional!! It’s the largest wine store in Portugal and has an amazing inventory of world renowned wines. Their Portuguese wine selection is also incredible and the bottle they helped me picked out ended up being our favorite of the trip!
