Rioja, Spain

Tempranillo

A cracking modern Rioja with plenty of juicy red cherry, ripe plum and blackberry, backed up by warming vanilla, sweet spice and a gentle touch of toasted oak. Smooth and beautifully balanced, with soft tannins and a lovely savoury finish that keeps you coming back for another sip. All the classic Rioja charm, with a fresh, fruit-forward twist - a proper crowd-pleaser from the heart of Spain.

A dream alongside grilled lamb chops, smoky chorizo or a juicy steak fresh off the grill. Also brilliant with patatas bravas, rich tomato-based pasta or a generous sharing board of Manchego, jamón and olives. Fire up the barbecue, crack open a bottle and bring a little Spanish sunshine to the table.
