Description

"Wonderfully fruited and inviting, the wine shows dark plum, spiced cherry, toasted nut and subtle cocoa characters on the nose, leading to a beautifully rounded palate that is supple and smooth. The wine offers sweet berry flavours together with elegant spicy nuances, making the wine delectable and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2021" Wine Orbit.

Transport yourself to the capital of flamenco, bullfights and sunshine with this “you bet it’s gunna be good” offer. When it comes to excitement and flavour, Spanish reds are renowned for constantly over-delivering and the Faustino Rivero Crianza is a beauty! Try it today!
Faustino Rivero Crianza is yet another example of the incredible value available from Spain - if you haven’t tried these wines do it today, you won’t regret it! In our view the Faustino Crianza is a great and affordable alternative to young Rioja. A classic Tempranillo (the grape of Rioja) and native Bobal blend. Its fresh, unoaked fruit (plums, redcurrants and cherries) comes down to a judicious blend of grapes from the gnarly bush vines of Utiel-Requena.

Amazing wine for the price. Easy drinking, smooth and my wife loves it to which is a bonus of course!

I love this wine. It has a flavour that lasts on the pallet. A wine full of body and flavour. A favourite in our house.

Smooth and 'meaty' If it weren't out of stock I would order more

Very smooth, very drinkable

Colin - 28/06/2019

Excellent. Lovely wine. Nice aged character but still good fruit and a little oak showing. Very good, recommended.
