Vega Sauco el beybi 2006

Vega Sauco el Beybi 2006

this is a good wine from the well-known Vega Sauco Cellar. In the past, this babi wine was a "maceración carbónica", similar to the great Fariña primero, but they discontinued this line and now it is a 6 month oak matured wine.
It should be the same, but I think that the former "vega sauco roble" was better than this one. Nevertheless, it is a pleasant wine.

Villullas rosado joven

Villullas

Theoretically it is produced by the "Bodega cooperativa de cigales". However, I have been unable to find it in their website. Nevertheless, it is a quite flat rosé wine. Nothing special.

Conde de Siruela 4 meses barrica

Conde de Siruela 4 meses barrica

This is a Ribera del Duero wine from the good cellar Frutos Villar (they also produce the good Muruve DO Toro wine). It is quite strong (some taste that reminds me "burnt"), but it is correct if drank with meals.
In my case, I had to choose between Faustino VII and Conde de Siruela. The election is very clear. Ribera del Dueron wins!

Vega dehesillas blanco 2007

This is a wine from Salamanca. I do not know if it was in good conditions or not, but I am sure that this is the worst white wine that I have ever tasted. Awful!

Crema Ruavieja

Crema Ruavieja

This is similar to Baileys, but it is based on Orujo (eau de vie) instead of Whiskey. In my opinion this product is much better. Worth to taste it. a great surprise!
