Beronia Rioja Reserva 2020
Beronia Rioja Reserva is a contemporary expression of one of Spain's most celebrated wine regions — elegant, complex, and built to impress. Predominantly old-vine Tempranillo with contributions of Graciano and Mazuelo, the wine is aged for 18 months in French and American oak before a further 18 months in bottle, producing a polished, harmonious red with real depth and a long, refined finish. Why You'll Love It Beronia has been producing Rioja for decades, earning a reputation for wines that balance traditional winemaking with a modern sensibility. The Reserva is the jewel in the crown — a wine that rewards patience and attention, revealing greater complexity with every glass. If you're looking for a Rioja that delivers genuine sophistication without requiring a special occasion, this is it. Vineyard & Production Grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and carefully sorted before slow, controlled fermentation to extract colour, aroma, and texture. The wine then spends 18 months maturing in a combination of French and American oak barrels, followed by a further 18 months of bottle ageing — allowing all the flavours to integrate fully before release. Tasting Notes Deep cherry-red in colour. The nose shows ripe black fruits and sweet cinnamon spice, with the palate delivering smooth, refined layers of lush black fruit, cacao, roasted hazelnut, and a hint of pepper. Soft tannins and an elegant, long finish complete the picture. Perfect Pairings A versatile partner for the table. Excellent with roast meats, Ibérico cured meats, slow-cooked lamb, and aged or ripe cheeses. Also a natural match for hearty stews and game dishes. The Blend Tempranillo 93%, Graciano 6%, Mazuelo 1% — DOCa Rioja, Spain. 18 months oak, 18 months bottle. 75cl bottle.
Bodegas Aragonesas Aragonia Seleccion Especial Garnacha 2021
This bold and expressive red is crafted in the Campo de Borja region, just south of Rioja and Navarra, where Garnacha reaches some of its finest expressions. Bodegas Aragonesas, an innovative and ambitious winery, has pioneered a unique approach: selecting the best wines from local cooperatives, before blending, maturing, and finishing them in-house. This meticulous process allows them to elevate quality and consistency, ensuring wines of exceptional character. Production The grapes are sourced from vines over 50 years old, producing naturally low yields of intensely concentrated fruit. Following vinification, the wine is matured in oak, where it develops depth, structure, and layers of complexity. Tasting notes A vivid, ripe Garnacha brimming with aromas of red berries, wild herbs, mineral notes, and roasted spice. The palate is broad, harmonious, and richly textured, with refined tannins supporting generous fruit and spice. Long, complex, and elegant on the finish. Food match Perfect with grilled meats, game, hearty casseroles, or rich vegetarian dishes such as aubergine stew or mushroom risotto. Grape varieties 100% Garnacha Tinta
