Grape

Tempranillo

Origin
This wine from the barren La Mancha region is 100% Tempranillo with 20 months ageing in American oak barrels to soften the wine and give structure. A great-value alternative to a Rioja, this region has really improved in quality terms in recent years.
Taste
Although slightly softer in texture, this supple red displays all the character of a Reserva Rioja, with plum fruits and sweet vanilla spice. A rounded finish completes the experience.
Enjoy
Superb with roast lamb, spicy dishes and hard cheese.

    Great value at under a fiver!!

    I have been buying this excellent wine regularly for the past six months or so. I did try the Gran Reserva but,in my view, the Reserva is better!

    Fantastic

    Having purchased the 2002 until stock ran out, was not disappointed with the 2004. Fantastic Oak and Vanilla comes through. Guests are never disappointed.

    Not a Rioja - but you wouldn't know!

    LOvely wine; great subtle bouquet; great with food or without. A winner!

    Top buy

    This wine is beautiful and fabulous for the price. I would agree that this is possibly better than the Gran Reserva.

    Full of character

    We took a bottle of this to some friends for a meal recently and without prompting at the first sip they commented on what a very good wine it was. I agreed wholeheartedly. This is an excellent value wine that is full of character and tastes far more expensive than it is. My next bottle will be shared just between my wife & I!
