Description

Deep purple-red, with blackberry and bilberry aromas and a touch of spice reminiscent of clove and cinnamon. The palate is supple and elegant, with soft tannins, fresh acidity and gentle notes of tobacco and balsamic from the oak. A delightful, easy-drinking Rioja with a long, silky finish.

A handy half bottle from Familia Martínez Bujanda. After fermentation in stainless steel, the Tempranillo spends 12 months ageing in American oak barrels, adding spice and gentle warmth to the fruit.

Pair with cheeses, poultry, fish or Rioja's favourite companion, lamb.

Rioja

Rioja, located in northern Spain, is one of the country’s most prestigious and renowned wine regions. The region benefits from a diverse climate with influences from both the Mediterranean and Atlantic, contributing to its varied wine styles.
Famous for its reds, primarily made from Tempranillo, which produce wines known for their depth, rich fruit flavours, and well-integrated oak characteristics, the region also produces notable blends incorporating Garnacha and Graciano. Rioja’s whites, including those from Viura and Malvasía, are celebrated for their freshness, aromatic complexity, and balanced acidity. Historically, Rioja has a winemaking tradition dating back to Roman times. The region gained prominence in the 19th century with the influence of French winemaking techniques, and today it is recognised for its commitment to both traditional and modern practices. Rioja's classification system, including Crianza, Reserva, and Gran Reserva, reflects its dedication to quality and aging potential, making it a benchmark for Spanish wine.
