From the ultra trendy and expensive region of Ribera del Duero, home to Vega Sicilia, Spain's most famous and pricy wine, comes a gem of a red. But you must like your reds to be big, brooding, blockbusters that need to be approached with a knife and fork!
This wine is plump & full, with aromas of peach, homemade red berry jam, and sweet spicy notes of cinnamon and exotic wood unfolding on the nose, before repeating on the palate, and ending in a long, smooth cocoa finish. Made from 100% Tempranillo and aged in oak for 8 months.
Few wines from this part of Spain are available in Ireland for under €20 so we believe we have found an outstanding bargain, a wine that can give any red under €20 a run for it's money. Highly recommended!
Rated excellent by Best of Wine in Ireland - "stylish wine that slips down very easily".
Food Match: steak, lamb, roast chicken.
