The Reds

Tempranillo

Probably the most famous of native Spanish varieties and the dominant grape type in the world famous wines of the Rioja and Ribera del Duero, can be consumed young, but ages particularly well in oak barrels.

 Notes – The wines are ruby red in colour, with typical aromas and flavors of berries, plum, tobacco, vanilla, leather and herb.

 

Verdejo

Grown mostly in the region of Rueda and previously known more for making sweet wines but has managed to change its image in recent years and is rapidly become a Spanish white favorite. The grapes are usually harvested at night when temperatures are cooler meaning less oxidation and clearer, cleaner looking wine.

 Notes – Beautifully aromatic wines with plenty of fruit, low acid and perfect balance, clean and sharp best drunk young
