Campo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo 2010

Minarete Ribera Del Duero DO Roble 2010

Description: Deep red in colour, this has the delicate aroma of blackcherry and coffee.

Baron Amarilla Rioja Reserva 2006

Description: This Rioja comes in a wire caged bottle, numbered label and looks every part more expensive than it is. The wine has a very deep, dark blood red colour, and a strong aroma of black fruits. This can be expected from the ‘reserva’ status of the Rioja which means it has had at least […]

July 18, 2012 by Simon Narracott Leave a Comment

Albizu Tempranillo 2011

Region: Spain, Rioja Grapes: Tempranillo Description: Plenty of lively, primary red fruit character without gushing.
