- andrawes76 - 08-25-2009 I've found the best European QPR these days be from Spain. Bodegas Atalaya 07 was my latest conquest. What a sexy, moderately priced wine this is ($14 and change). Bing cherry, blackberry produces a laser beam concentration that develops into a lasting finish. Consumed with some calamari sauteed in lemon, garlic, tomato sauce. While it may not have been the ideal pairing, it was a darned fine meal because of the wine. - donnaclif - 08-26-2009 i have been trying to get of this wine... i have heard is a blend of Monastrell, Garnacha Tintorera, and other red grapes. some of my friends who have tasted it call it the best wine in the world. i hope they are not exaggerating.

Why not one more? - donnaclif - 08-27-2009 ha ha! so true.. even i have had many best in the world claims.. but it all depends on your taste buds |
