Fleshy and fresh old fashioned Rioja

Jancisrobinson.com 17 "Very deep crimson. Lovely mellifluous nose but with great structure. Fresh and yet luscious. Good Value". Surprising these 2 varieties aren't seen more in Oz. Properly structured classy dinner wine, great value -as Jancis says.

Juicy, concentrated Tempranillo palate, with strawberry and vanilla scent and bright, bouncy fruit.

El Valiente is a fruity wine but maintaining the essence of Bodegas Valdaya, with floral memories, such as violet and balsamic. It maintains the classic elegant character of their wines but offering a more fruity and lovely profile. Very fresh with a delightful velvety texture. This is everything you want in a quality Spanish wine, wonderful nose, sumptuous fruit and elegant oak all working in harmony with each other.

A sumptuous, handcrafted Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero DO, the Valdaya shines with aromas of dried fruit and balsamic hints. Flavours of ripe blackberries and dark cocoa complement the silky palate and subtle tannic structure.

Made using only free-run juice aged for 15 months, this is a wine of great freshness, minerality and aromatics. Ripe black fruit flavours, floral notes and a silky texture make for a luxurious feeling wine. TIM ATKIN MW SAYS... “Valdaya's top red, Mirum, keeps improving with every vintage and is now among the best wines inRibera del Duero. Made with Tinto Fino from old-vine parcels - LosBueyes and LasPiedras -inBaños de Valdearodos, it's very much a limestone-influenced style from 925 metres, with subtle wood, chalky minerality,red berry fruit,tension and floral, violet top notes. Long, stylish and beautifully judged. 2022-30”

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.

100% Tempranillo. The Celeste begins with a really lovely and expressive nose of dark fruit (blackberry, black cherry, black currant) as well as some vanilla. This medium to full-bodied wine wine tastes simply succulent with lots of juicy fruit and a smooth texture.

Located in Gumiel de Mercado, in the heart of Ribero del Duero, 20km north of Aranda on silty and clayey sand this red is made from 100% Tempranillo grapes from 25 years old vines in Finca de Revillalcepo. The wine receives 6 months ageing in a combination of French (for spicy flavours) and American (for vanilla flavours) oak barrels. Textbook Ribera del Duero...on the nose there is a backdrop of cherry and plums with added spice and leather. On the palate it is a medium to full-bodied, silky smooth style.

Graciano is one of the key components of Rioja wines, but rarely is it seen bottled as a single variety. Rich and intense, with floral, violet, and red cherry aromas, and a deep chocolatey finish.

Vega Sicilia - Spain's most prestigious wine producer. Unico is their flagship wine, making this the crème de la crème of Spanish wines. Unico is aged for 10 years before release, and is predominantly made with Termpranillo, with some Cabernet Sauvignon. 96/100 from RobertParker.com

Vega Sicilia's 'entry-level' wine, if it makes sense to talk about such a thing from Spain's most famous wine producer. Aged for five years before release. 96/100 from RobertParker.com; 18/20 - JancisRobinson.com

Alion, founded in 1992, a more modern expression of Ribero del Duero from Vega Sicilia, showcasing Tempranillo. 2018 was a fresh, Atlantic-influenced vintage, giving this Alión a more vertical, longer, and elegant expression.

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.

Ruby red colour with violet tints showing its youth. On the nose it is fresh and elegant with characteristic aromas of cherry and red fruits typical of this variety. Light, harmonic and round on the palate with soft tannins.

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."

Extremely fruity, it displays aromas of red berries on a subtle yet appealingly spiced background. Structured, elegant and velvety in the mouth. Long, fresh and appealing 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

This is a soft, easy drinking dry red wine full of delicious ripe fruit flavours. Enjoy it with tapas food or simply on its own.

Old low-yield vineyards, located in Quintanilla de Onésimo, with great mesoclimate and soil conditions. Aged 14 months in second hand French oak barrels. Deep purple ruby, youthful. Cool, menthol, blueberry, graphite nose, exciting. Intense palate, plenty of tannins but chock full of bramble, blueberry fruit, decent acidity and earnest concentration. Will be very good from 2022 onwards.

Rich, fruity and intense, it is loaded with raspberry and black cherry aromas, cedar chips and pretty violet notes and a hint of vanilla. The vanilla pops back again on the palate with caramel and supple grapey flavours.

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."

Parker 93/100 "...a blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho and 5% each Mazuelo and Graciano, matured in used American oak barrels for six years. It has some toasted character, with ripe fruit, black rather than red, denoting a warm year but more restrained than the Bosconia Reserva from the same vintage. 2009 is a year of ripeness, concentration and tannin; the wines are powerful, but here you see the finesse of Tondonia..."

Tasting notes: Intense red ruby colour. Black and red fruits, cherry and bubblegum aromas. Full bodied with balanced tannins through the mid-palate. Long finish. 8.000 bottles produced

The Bardos Reserva is an elegant high-altitude expression of Ribera del Duero wine made from low-yielding Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 14 months in oak, it has excellent structure from balanced tannins and acidity, alongside complex notes of dark fruit, chocolate and vanilla spice.

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

Delicious everyday red- no further discounts

Very good Rioja that offers superb value. One year in a mixture of French and American oak barrels, adds texture and flavour to the tempranillo dominant blend from one of Rioja's most consistent producers.

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.

Rich, fruity and intense, it is loaded with raspberry and black cherry aromas, cedar chips and pretty violet notes and a hint of vanilla. The vanilla pops back again on the palate with caramel and supple grapey flavours.
