Bodegas Care Blanco Sobre Lias 2020

Budget Busting Spanish White: 2020 Bodegas Care Blanco Sobre Lias

Talk about a palate-pleasing, value-priced Spanish white that also scored 90 points! The 2020 Bodegas Care Blanco Sobre Lias is a blend of tank-fermented Grenache Blanc and Chardonnay that drinks like a high quality white Cotes du Rhone.

I love finding inexpensive wines that over-deliver in a big way, and this is definitely one of those. Like I said, it drinks like a really good Cotes du Rhone Blanc, but it comes to you at less than $12. My advice -- STOCK UP!

My team and I tasted this one last week, and we were frankly blown away by how good this was. We didn't know the price when we were tasting it, but we all guessed that it would retail for $15 to $20. We were wrong. Way wrong! Trust me, this could easily fetch $15+, and for those who love White Rhones, you'd be more than happy if you paid that.

Bodegas Care is not a small winery, but what they are is a quality-driven, modern, and family owned and operated winery located in the Carinena DO of Northeastern Spain. The winery and the wines kind of remind me of the wines from Corsica's Domaine Vetriccie. Like Vetriccie, Bodegas Care owns a lot of land and makes a lot of wine, but their offerings are affordable, cleanly made, and most importantly, DELICIOUS.

Right when you twist the screwcap off of this one and pour yourself a glass, you will be greeted with fresh but ripe notes of white peach, melon, pineapple, and honeysuckle. The palate is equally nice, offering up and round and rather full-bodied texture while still remaining completely dry and zesty. 

Based on what I'm tasting and smelling here, I agree with Suckling's 90 point score. Further, this is about 100 times better than what you would be able to find at the grocery store in this price range. Stock up on this one for casual sipping or large gatherings. You and your guests will be delighted!
