Step over Rioja’s border into ancient, sleepy Navarra. There you’ll find some of the finest, best value, barrel aged reds in Spain – if not the world! And that’s especially true of this oh-so-smooth Spanish red. You see this is not only a Gran Reserva with eight years of mellow maturity, it also comes from a winemaker used to making top echelon Rioja. He’s about to bring in a new harvest and needs space in the cellar. So, in exchange for anonymity, he’s offered a very special price on his 2012. You'll enjoy silky dried fruit flavours, layered with mocha and spice, beautifully silky tannins and a very long finish. All the flavour and style of top Gran Reserva Rioja, but at nowhere near the same expensive price. Open early and savour.
