Description
Try this! Wonderfully smooth 2007 vintage Rioja, expertly crafted from 100% Tempranillo grapes (hand-picked in the top quality enclave of Alavesa) and given a delicious vanilla complexity thanks to an 8-month rest in fine oak barrels.

Did you know that the best wines are made near great rivers? And award-winning Finca Labarca tend low-yielding vines uniquely sited right on the banks of the mighty Ebro, pictured above. High altitude (you're at 600 metres) and the cooling Ebro make for seriously ripe yet fresh berry flavours. Delicious!

Beautifully mellow with classic Rioja aromas of toasty-vanilla red fruit. Oozes with soft, ripe cherry and redcurrant flavours, with a lovely hint of spice. The perfect partner for Sunday roasts or authentic tapas.
