AWARDED 91/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Upfront and fruit expressive, the wine shows dark plum, spiced cherry, olive and floral aromas. The palate delivers juicy fruit intensity with fine texture and elegant tannins, making it approachable and immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Based on 100% Monastrell, the 2019 Monastrell o!ers a terrific nose of kirsch and blueberry intermixed with lots of peppery spice, flowers, and violets. Beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied, elegant, and with a gorgeous sense of finesse and purity, it's a no brainer purchase"Jeb Dunnuck

2 x Maravedi Organic Tinto 2023 (Spain)

This is an excellent example of Tempranillo-Syrah from old Spanish dry-farmed Organic vineyards. Deep purple with a ruby rim, displaying aromas of red fruit and blackberries with slight spicy notes of freshly ground pepper. Medium bodied and juicy on palate, yet with fine tannins and a refreshing finish. Certified Organic.

"This delicious, soft, characterful, everyday-drinking wine illustrates just why Rioja is Spain’s most popular red wine" Steve Bennett, Master of Wine, Importer

Aldenueva Cooperative is from the village of the same name in the Rioja Baja region. Out of the 2500 inhabitants of the village, 900 are farmers who are members of the cooperative and sell their grapes to them. The vineyards are on different altitudes and soil types and, some of the vines are between 50 and 100 years old which all add to the complexity of the wines. Quality is paramount at the winery and they test both the grapes and wine at varying stages of the process to ensure the best quality possible.
