"Youthfully charming and seductively complex with dark berry, olive, cured meat and violet aromas, it's beautifully weighted on the palate delivering ripe fruit intensity with plump mouthfeel and fine polished tannins, finishing delightfully savoury and delectable. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orit, May 2022

"Predominantly grenache with other varieties. Dense, rich, weighty red that is a pleasure to taste. Rustic meets royalty. A great match with hearty stews and casseroles. Excellent value at this price. Drink 2022–2030" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, May 2022

"Very expressive and fruity bouquet with layers of red berries and spice, there’s a light meaty quality, a core of mineral with a stony granite quality then a layer of dried herb and wood spices. A firm youthful texture with tannins and acidity driving the mouthfeel. Flavours of cranberry and spiced plum, boysenberry and macerated cherries then vanilla and mineral returns. A decent weight with medium+ complexity and loads of charm. Best drinking from 2023 through 2027+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jun 2022

"Talented Norrel Robertson MW has made some of the most exciting discoveries I have come across in a long while" Jancis Robinson, Master of Wine

Deep purple in colour. Lifted aromas of black cherry fruit and wild berries with complex notes of pepper and mountain herbs. Full-bodied, with dense, mouth-filling black fruit this is a richly flavoured with smooth tannins, bright acidity and a long smoky finish.

Papa Luna is the creation of Scottish-born and New Zealand-trained winemaker Norrel Robertson, Master of Wine. Norrel worked vintages in Portugal, Italy, France, Australia, Chile and New Zealand before he and his family landed in Spain in 2003. It was first released in 2004 and this 2020, the 16th vintage is comprised of old Vine Garnacha 75%, Syrah 20%, Mazuelo (Carignan) 5%. It is named after Pedro Martinez de Luna, or “Papa Luna”, the last Pope to reign in Avignon during the dual Papacy in the late 14th century. He was born in the Calatayud region and this wine is a homage to his inimitable character.

Located in Aragón in northeast Spain the vineyards are in the sub-region of Calatayud which offers one of the most singular areas in Spain for Garnacha based wines due to its unique continental climate and ancient vines which produce wines of great intensity. Today Norrel owns more than 25 hectares with dry grown, low- yielding vines on rocky, calcareous soil aged between 50 and 115 years. Altitudes range between 700 and 950 meters on the slopes of Monte Armantes and Sierra de la Virgen in the heart of the Iberian System.

Sarah Jane Evans, Master of Wine, of Decanter Magazine explains “Norrel has spent years seeking out the best expression of high-altitude old vineyards and making wines of great character.” And from the eminent Jancis Robinson Master of Wine, “Talented Norrel Robertson has made some of the most exciting discoveries I have come across in a long while [he is] the top producer in Calatayud.” Colin Harkness on Wine states. “Norrel makes a range of wines that are in the top flight of the whole of Spain. It’s clear that here are wines that are placing Calatayud firmly on the map of quality wines of the world”.

In the words of Anthony Rose in The Independent (UK), “this is a powerful Spanish answer to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, only considerably more affordable.” Indeed, Papa Luna is an incredible value wine with multiple previous vintages scoring 90+ in respected publications and critics such as Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Cuisine Magazine, Bob Campbell MW and has wone a gold medal at the NZIWS and was named Wine of the Year in The Indispensable Wine Guide.

Food Pairing: A great wine to drink with classic game dishes such as venison, duck and roast suckling pig. It also partners well with punchy, flavoursome dishes such as ragout and tomato based recipes.

Easy install
Just installed in our bathroom. Feels solid. We have a potted plant on it now. You will want a drill bit extender to clear the shelf. I use the flexible type. Otherwise you won’t be able to get the screws in at a 90 degree angle.

Very nice, well made.
The nine-inch oak shelf is well made, and is 45 degrees. The wall where I planned to install it was not, and I suspect this is the problem some of the reviews saying the shelf was not made at 45 degrees. In my case, we removed wood a bit at a time until we achieved a good fit. We did receive all of the hardware, but beware. The plastic straight insert anchors do not snug up with the supplied screws. However we used the supplied plastic toggles with better results. The hardware is why I rate this 4 stars. Otherwise, it is a nice piece, and well worth the price.

Pieces missing, poor instructions, would not buy again!
Let's start with the good news: I did, eventually, get the shelves hung after a trip to the hardware store and some trial and error. Now for the bad news: * One of the screws holding the brace to the shelf was missing, making the shelf wobbly before I even hung it. * The directions for hanging the shelves show a different anchor than the one that comes packaged with them. This anchor will ONLY work in sturdy drywall and it's going to leave a huge hole behind. * The directions tell you to flip the shelf upside-down to position and mark the screw holes, BUT that means the sides of the shelf are reversed, and the hole positions do not match on each side. So if you start hammering or drilling based on those marks, they don't align and now you have extra holes in your wall. Honestly, I regret buying these and wish I'd just chosen a free-standing shelf instead. But I made it work for me, so I guess there's that.

Nice oak corner shelf but check your measurements first
5 stars for the shelf, 3 stars for myself :-) This is a well-made oak corner shelf that looks great where I put it. The wood is nice quality and the construction is solid. Before you order though, do yourself a favor and check two things: 1) Make sure the size is actually big enough for what you need, and 2) Check that your corner is actually a true 90-degree angle. Turns out mine isn't perfectly square and now I'm trying to figure out how to position this thing properly. Good product overall, just wish I'd measured more carefully before ordering.
