Gran Cerdo Tempranillo 2020

This is a super tasty Tempranillo that shows that Rioja is indeed THE home to the varietal. Floral aromatics with lots of bright red fruit alongside hints of licorice and spice. The tannins are soft and approachable, making for a fantastic midweek quaffer (or any time of the week!).

Pagos Del Rey Arnegui Rioja Joven Tempranillo 2019

A harmonious blend of Grenache, Tempranillo and Graciano, with an earthy character, blue and blackberries, a lick of spice and a nice hint of oak. The perfect accompaniment to that mid-week pizza fix you’ve been craving so much (no, YOU’RE projecting).

De Alto Amo Rioja  Tempranillo Grenache Graciano Joven 2019

‘Corriente’ translates to ‘current’ which is ironic, because this is one of our current favourite wines! See what we did there? Made with fruit from six local growers under the same instructions. Sarsaparilla, cherry cola, lots of red and purple flowers with fresh acidity and tart cherry edges.

Telmo Rodriguez Corriente Vino de Cosecheros Tempranillo 2018

This is a vibrant and crunchy style of Rioja that'll have the whole dinner table nodding their heads in approval! It's a Garnacha (cheat sheet: Spanish name for Grenache) dominant blend, with Tempranillo instead playing a supporting role. Red fruited and plush, it's awash with fleshy cherries and juicy plums complemented by chalky tannins and zesty, grapefruit-like acidity.

Real Agrado Rioja Grenache Tempranillo 2019

A blend of both southern and northern foothills in Rioja, this is a medium-weighted red made from 100% Tempranillo. Dusty cherry, dried tobacco, a little leather, and sweet licorice, with some soft, savoury tannins adding depth and length.

Hacienda el Olmo Rioja Crianza Tempranillo 2018

This is a delicious Rioja that walks the line between seriousness and accessibility so well. Comprising of mostly Tempranillo with a splash of Garnacha, it's aged exclusively in fibreglass tanks to preserve the freshness of the fruit. Dark cherry, blackberry, and a little dusty tobacco leaf with rich, full tannins. Bring on the tapas!
