"Based on the 2020 vintage and disgorged in December 2022, the latest rendition of Sélèque's NV Extra Brut Solessence reveals aromas of white flowers, ripe citrus fruit, peach and almond paste. Medium-bodied, ample and pillowy, it's chalky and precise, with a bright spine of acidity and a pure, mineral finish. It's a terrific introduction to the domaine's range."

"Ripe and soft, impressively rich, with tight citrus minerality."

The red 2022 Rafael Tinto has notes of tomato vine, sweet spices and berry jam. Produced with a blend of 40% Alicante Bouschet, 30% Aragonez, 20% Trincadeira and 10% Castelão, it was foot trodden in lagar, went through malolactic and had one year of élevage in 5,000-liter oak vats and used French barriques. It comes in at 14% alcohol and is fruit-driven, with a juicy and chewy palate and abundant tannins. It is bright and chewy.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard is a stunning example of eastern Oakville Cabernet. It's loaded with scents of cassis and red plum and tinged with faint hints of thyme and sage, and it's full-bodied, rich and relatively open-knit. Ripe, plush and layered, gently framed by cedar and vanilla, it's lovely stuff that should drink well for up to two decades.

The 2019 Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a spectacular showing. This immediately releases gorgeous aromas of fresh blackberries, cassis and dark plums that come together with Asian spices, dark chocolate, wild herbs, gravel and iron nuances, which are a signature of this Eastern Oakville site. Full-bodied and remarkably well-structured, with wonderful concentration. It continues to impress as it shows wonderful freshness and depth through the ultra-long finish. While this is already excellent, this certainly displays excellent potential for long term cellaring and should go on to have an even brighter future ahead.

I loved the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard. This beauty is a great representation of this terroir, with mineral-drenched aromas and flavors of blueberries, iron, chocolate, graphite, and candied violets. Deep, rich, and full-bodied, it’s another monster of a wine from Bevan that stays beautifully balanced and seamless.

I also tasted the 2022 Viñedos en Labastida. The wines are produced in a similar way to highlight the differences of the places and vintages. In 2022, it's a similar blend of different plots with some 85% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha and 5% white grapes, and it had a similar vinification and élevage in 500- and 600-liter oak foudres in their cave. It's very primary and fruit-driven, with a nose of ripe berries and herbs, a lactic twist and a fine thread in the palate, with surprisingly fine tannins for a 2022. 3,600 bottles were filled in September 2023.

"Red cherry in color and pointedly spicy, this wine has a fine bubble that gives it a zesty feel and creates delicate nuances to the fruit, even though the flavors are concentrated, belying that light and airy mousse. Citrus, smoke and leather scents rise out of the glass, capped by a stinging acidity that needs food, like a chorizo-laden paella."
