A serious crowd-pleaser style of Tempranillo that is brimming with fresh ripe red fruit flavours with hints of blackberries. There is no oak here making it very easy drinking. Serve with or without food, or even straight out of the fridge on the warmer weather. Produced by Viña Albergada, a highly respected Rioja producer, the wine comes from vineyards planted within the Rioja Alavesa appellation. The soils are a mix of limestones and clay which brings a natural acidity and balance to the wine. This example, made by a Rioja producer, from grapes grown within the region, doesn’t actually have the name Rioja on the label, as it is made slightly outside of the rules, but it certainly tastes like it.

This Douro red tastes like it it more expensive than it is, and we love wines like that! It is a cracker, bursting with the intense aromas of forest fruits like blueberries, black cherry, and blackberries. There’s a seductive touch of cocoa and chocolate in the background, giving it that extra layer of richness. On the palate, it’s silky smooth and beautifully balanced, showing off its ripe fruit with elegance and finesse. Made from a classic Douro blend, this wine perfectly captures the bold and robust nature of the region. Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz lead the charge, bringing deep, rich flavours of dark fruits with subtle hints of spice and earthiness.
