The Platinum Rioja Treble

Muga Seleccion Especial
Rioja, Spain
1 x 75cl Bottle
This is a staggering Rioja, which would make a perfect gift, especially for someone coveting a wine cellar of precious bottles. Deep, very dense black-cherry colour. The nose reveals ripe, red berry fruit aromas together with notes of spices (pepper) and forest floor, against a backdrop of milky coffee, roast coffee beans, caramel, mingling with subtle well-integrated oak. Silky tannins.

Vina Tondonia Reserva
Rioja, Spain
1 x 75cl Bottle
This Reserva has been matured for six and a half years in French oak barrels. It has a very delicate and fresh nose, with empyreumatic aromas and some hints of vanilla. The aromatically complex palate is rich, with a creamy texture and firm but elegant tannins. This wine has excellent ageing potential.

Super-smooth with light tannins, this medium bodied Rioja has plentiful aromas of black pepper, cherry and blackberry. The palate is dry with medium acidity, smooth tannins with flavours of ripe, damson plum, blackberry, fresh cherries and cassis alongside subtle oak, lingering black pepper, tobacco and light leather with a long finish. Drinking really well at the moment.

Bodegas Remelluri Reserva
Haro, Rioja, Spain
1 x 75cl Bottle
From the winery: “Remelluri Reserva is the original Granja Nuestra Señora de Remelluri estate wine, fruit of the most important vineyards of the property. It originates from the three valleys surrounding the winery — Remelluri, Valderremelluri and Villaescusa — which belong to the municipalities of Labastida (RIOJA ALAVESA) and Rivas de Tereso, hamlet that belongs to San Vicente de La Sonsierra (RIOJA ALTA). Since the Fourteenth Century, these areas have formed part of Granja Nuestra Señora de Remelluri, the first single-vineyard Rioja property to work with the classic Médoc-Bordeaux method.” John Wilson: “Wow! Wonderful wine. Broader, showing some soft maturity on the nose and palate; ripe dark fruits with real depth and complexity, yet at the same time a lovely purity of fruit. This is exceptional Rioja.
