Vina Pomal Rioja Reserva
Rioja Alta, Spain
1 x 75cl Bottle
Made using 100% estate-grown Tempranillo from vineyards in the premium sub-region of Rioja Alta, and given Gran Reserva-like treatment in the winery, this is a seriously good Rioja! The grapes for this wine come from Viña Pomal's own vineyards which surround the winery. The first Viña Pomal release was over 100 years ago in 1904, and they have since been producing high quality, classic 100% Tempranillo Riojas. Bursting with blackberry and raspberry fruit, the palate is clean, intense and persistent. Perfectly balanced with soft velvety tannins it is delicious from start to the long finish. This traditional style of Rioja will be a superb complement to Catalan-style charcuterie or cured meats.
Marques de Riscal Rioja Reserva
Elciego, Rioja, Spain
1 x 75cl Bottle
Marques de Riscal Reserva is a deep cherry red in colour with a bouquet of ripe dark fruit and spicy toasted oak. There is good structure on the palate, which is full and rounded with elegant tannins. The finish is long, leaving a nice taste of oak behind. Marques de Riscal Reserva pairs well with most red meats, poultry, grills, roast and mild cheese.
Haro, Rioja, Spain

Bodegas Ramón Bilbao is situated in a privileged location: Haro, in Rioja Alta, a paradise where Rioja’s emblematic grape variety, Tempranillo, grows best. From vines with an average age of 40 years, this concentrated, intense Rioja is a blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha. This soft and supple wine is vibrant ruby in colour with aromas of red cherry and blackberry fruit and slight hints of vanilla on the medium bodied palate. Well structured with a long and pleasant finish which would be ideal with red meat stews and cheeses.

Bodegas Navajas Rioja Reserva
Rioja, Spain
1 x 75cl Bottle
This reserva is produced from grapes selected from the older bush vines which yield very small amounts of concentrated yet balanced fruit. Hand harvested at optimum ripeness for each site, they are then transported to the winery in small baskets and unloaded by hand into the winery. The barrels are 60% French and 40% American with approximately 35% new and the rest 1 to 2 years. The wine is held in barrel for a minimum of 18 months prior to barrel selection and blending to make the final wine, which is then assembled and bottled for further ageing of 12 months or longer. Spectacular Reserva wine!
