Valdespino Amontillado Coliseo VORS

Clara Johansson — The wine shop guy was right

9/10

Bloke at my local recommended this when I said I wanted something special for a dinner party. It went down incredibly well — everyone kept going back to it. Really layered, kept unfolding through the evening. Clean finish too, no harshness at all. Will definitely buy again for the right occasion.

Ravi Krishnan — Took a while to click but then I got it

8/10

First glass I wasn't totally sold, thought it was a bit much for what I normally drink. But I left it to breathe and came back to it and something just shifted. The acidity cuts through perfectly and there's this depth that I kept finding new things in. At 14% it's dangerously easy to drink for how intense it is.

Daisy Miller — Really good but hard to justify the price

8/10

Tried this at a tasting event and it's genuinely lovely. Super expressive on the nose straight away and the balance is spot on — not too heavy at all for something this rich. But £130 is a lot and I'm not sure I'd buy a whole bottle when there are great options at half the price.
