Top-end and faultless. Beautifully broad, aristocratic dinner wine. Liquorice, chopped nuts, balsamic, leather. Silky rounded tannins. Tons of awards

2001 Bosconia Gran Reserva (12%) "With a deep mahogany core and fading rim, this has intense black and red hedgerow berry fruit with a lifted, musky scent and a top note of autumn leaves. A vanilla character overlays exotic Persian spice, which almost moves to a note of dark curry powder (think Biryani), cardamom and cloves. The palate is tight, lean and focused, with a fine grip of powdered chalky tannins on the long, long finish. Drink 2023-2036." Catriona Felstead MW, Senior Buyer FMV

"The 2001 Viña Tondonia Gran Reserva is the follow-up of the 1995. There is a sense of harmony and elegance, of nuance and subtleness that wasn't quite the same in the Bosconia, as comparing both wines is inevitable. They started picking the red grapes the 15th of October, and the last grapes were picked the 29th of October with good weather. The grapes ripened properly and thoroughly, and the wine has great balance for a long aging in bottle. This is 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho and 5% each Graciano and Mazuelo that fermented in their 153-year-old oak vats with indigenous yeasts and matured in used barrels for 10 years. It has 13% alcohol, a pH of 3.4 and 6.4 grams of acidity (tartaric). The nose shows young (tasting it blind, you'd guess a 10-year old wine, not a 20-year-old wine!). It has a nose of sweet spices, underbrush and cigar ash, somewhat balsamic, bramble fruit with perfect ripeness, integrated and young but starting to show some tertiary complexity. The palate is velvety and medium-bodied, with fine-grained, chalky tannins denoting a limestone soil that brings finesse and texture and a sapid, tasty, almost salty finish. This is going to make a beautiful bottle of old Rioja in 30 years' time! 25,000 bottles produced. " It was bottled after being fined with egg whites in July 2012. Drink 2021-2040. 98/100. Luis Gutierrez, The Wine Advocate – Oct. 2020

Dried apple, lemon rind, walnut, praline, dried honeysuckle and clove on the nose. Medium-bodied with tangy acidity. Bright and vibrant feel, balancing the rich, waxy layers of dried fruit and spice. Saline undertones. Some nougat and yogurt, too. Long. James Suckling 96/100

Splendidly evolved, orange/brick red, almost-pinot-like delicacy with a hot-earth rusticity and nutmeg spice. Highly drinkable, stunning value baby wine of this most eccentric but super-traditional Rioja estate - a real bargain and treat.

2010 was an excellent vintage in Rioja and it shows in this wine. As always, the winemakers take their time and do not release wines to the market without being perfect and ready to drink. It begins with a dark brick colour and narrow amber rim already suggests its intensity. With so much age in oak, there is concentrated spicy notes and leather. Still surprisingly fresh and the fruit is still coats the mouth too, great acidity!

Aromas of citrus fruit and citrus peel are welcoming but basic. This rosé feels flush yet fresh, with proper balance. Clean but limited flavours of citrus and stone fruits finish steady and avoid the common plague of bitterness

Parker 92/100 "...shows the ripeness of the very warm and dry year. It's structured and concentrated, quite different from the finesse of the Tondonia. Bosconia has always been more rustic and powerful and Tondonia all about finesse and nuance. There are dark plums and baking spices, a touch of singed leather, the fruit very strong to counterbalance the ageing in barrel. This is a powerful Bosconia."

Colour: Natural gold, developed. Nose: Fresh, complex and developed. Taste: Smooth, round, fine and developed. 97/100 James Suckling

90/100 Tim Atkin "Sold as a generic red because "Crianza doesn't add value in Rioja," according to Matías Calleja, this lightly oaked pure Tempranillo is enticingly aromatic with rose petal and cinnamon perfume, tangy acidity and textured raspberry and strawberry sweetness."

Navajas is a family-run estate, situated outside the small town of Navarrete in La Rioja Alta. Antonio Navajas makes quintessential Rioja - soft, round and oaky. This is a superb example of a crianza combining ripe, sweet fruit with vanillin scented oak.

Hacienda Lopez de Haro continues to rack up awards for being one of the best quality best value Rioja brands, and this Crianza is its flagship. It's a no brainer delicious wine with lovely pure flavours and 18 months ageing in French and American oak barrels.

Lopez de Haro Tempranillo is pure young Tempranillo: strawberries, raspberries, flowers and red licorice notes. A pleasure to drink slightly chilled with charcuterie. Refreshing and a real bargain.

Elegant and round. It is well balanced with a velvety attack followed by a pleasant acidity and a silky and full-bodied aftertaste resulting from its noble and ripe tannin. Its long aftertaste has spicy and balsamic hints, resulting from its long and peaceful ageing, as well as confit fruit nuances that uncover its personality.

Ripe red fruits combine with interwoven oak to give touches of spice, cherries and a hint of licquorice. A beautifully elegant, lasting finish. 12 months in French oak & 6 months in American oak

A crisp unoaked White Rioja made from the Viura variety. Slightly lemony and beautiful with any seafood tapas.

Fermented in steel and aged for 2 months in French oak It has lovely floral and citrus fruit notes on the nose, more on the palate and thirst quenching acidity. Really pleasing to drink on its own or with creamy dishes.

Beronia has blended modern and traditional touches to create a fine gran reserva with spice, vanilla, coconut, tobacco and dried berry aromas.

90% Tempranillo, 5% Graciano and 5% Garnacha from Rioja, Spain. The wine spends 20 months in a combination of French and American oak barrels. Inviting aromas of ripe black cherry, nice vanilla notes and a touch of balsamic. The wine tastes smooth and round in the mouth with lots of tart black cherry fruit, sweet spice notes, licorice and more vanilla.

A beautifully balanced example of white Rioja that straddles the styles of the old and the new. Vibrant citrussy Viura is blended with the more weighty Malvasia and the brief barrel maturation adds a honeyed roundness to the crisp lemony fruit. Beautiful golden yellow colour with bright lemon-tinted reflections. Elegant, combining hints of flowers, fruits and hazelnuts. Dry, with just enough acidity to make it fresh and lively with a structured and tasty finish of ripe fruit.

Awarded 'Best in Show' at DWWA 2021, this gran reserva is still showing impeccable class and drinking beautifully now. A blend of old-vine Tempranillo from Sonsierra and Garnacha from Alto Najerilla, with 42 months new and used French oak. Complex, perfumed, evolved savoury aromas, with notes of mushroom, damsons, black fruit and baked plums. Harmonious palate with subtly shifting layers of black and red fruit, coffee, spice and tobacco, plus fine tannins and a long, memorable finish.

This is Rioja at its precocious youthful best, with intense raspberry and black cherry fruit overlayed with a flourish of vanilla and coconut from 4 months in American oak. It is beautifully balanced with medium weight and cushioned by fine grain tannins." Ted Sandbach

A small family-run bodega near the village of Navarrete, in the heart of Rioja D.O.C., making wines of great integrity and some finesse. It was founded in 1918 and is today run by Antonio Navajas and his wife. This is a big favourite of many of our customers and on a 'value for money' basis it is not hard to understand why.

Onion skin colour. Nose: Fresh and persistent. Taste: Smooth and fresh with body and complexity due to the ageing conditions
