Bodegas La Horra Corimbo Red Wine
Bodegas La Horra is a modern, forward-thinking estate at the heart of Ribera del Duero , one of Spain's most celebrated red wine regions. Corimbo is their flagship expression, sourced from organically farmed vineyards in the villages of La Horra and Roa, with vines averaging around 20 years of age. It is a wine that captures the soul of the region with freshness, aromatic depth and genuine elegance. Why You'll Love It This is Ribera del Duero red wine at its most expressive and approachable. Corimbo strikes a beautiful balance between the power you expect from the region and a freshness that makes it genuinely versatile at the table. The organic farming brings a purity to the fruit, while 16 months in oak adds richness and spice without ever overwhelming the wine's natural character. Whether you're opening it tonight or cellaring it for a few years, Corimbo delivers. Vineyard and Production Grapes are hand-picked into 16kg crates and carefully sorted on arrival at the winery. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in a combination of wooden and stainless steel vats, with a maceration period of approximately 18 days to extract colour, structure and aromatic complexity. The wine is then aged for 16 months in a blend of 80% French oak and 20% American oak barrels, building texture and depth while preserving the vibrant fruit at its core. Tasting Notes Deep picota cherry in colour with a dark red rim. The nose is expressive and inviting, with red and black fruits, particularly cherry and blackberry, alongside mineral notes, aromatic herbs and fine spice. Subtle hints of wet earth, pine forest and fresh pistachio add intrigue. On the palate, broad and voluminous, with fine, polished tannins, red fruit flavours, delicate oak and a long, harmonious finish with a lingering freshness. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for the dinner table. Try it with roasted lamb, slow-braised beef, hearty stews or a classic Sunday roast. Also excellent alongside aged Manchego, charcuterie or
Pio Cesare Nebbiolo 2020
Pio Cesare Nebbiolo is a beautifully poised and expressive Piedmontese red from one of the Langhe's most respected and historic family estates, crafted from a selection of vineyards in La Morra and Serralunga in the Barolo area and San Rocco Seno d'Elvio in the Barbaresco area. Intense, ripe and fresh with soft, fragrant tannins, this is an outstanding introduction to the world of Nebbiolo from a producer who knows the variety better than almost anyone. Why You'll Love It Pio Cesare is one of Piedmont's most celebrated family estates, with deep roots in both the Barolo and Barbaresco appellations.
