Bodegas Guelbenzu 2009 Azul Guelbenzu

88 Points

This tastes like drinking red wine from a wooden cup, which makes the Azul Guelbenzu sound awful, but not at all. The tempranilo-based wine has acidity, complexity and yes, a rather plankish wood feel, but it works. There's something antique about this wine that makes it so charming.

Price List:

  • Ontario: $19 Vintages
  • Quebec: $18
