El Bombero 2023

Item Code: 0003923

Description

Legendary BIG red from sun-filled Cariñena, with velvet richness and fruit-forward flavour.

For lovers of big, smooth reds, El Bombero is a top choice. It comes from Cariñena, a hot, arid region of Spain where sun-loving grapes like Garnacha (same as Châteauneuf’s Grenache) achieve amazing ripeness. Ancient vines, hot summers and a lack of rain mean fewer grapes, which in turn means superb flavour intensity. Hence mouthfilling El Bombero. There are no fancy châteaux around Cariñena, but, as Decanter magazine notes, that doesn’t stop it from being home to some of the best-value reds in the world.

From award-winning winemaker Javier Domeque, El Bombero is packed with spicy black fruit power and a warm glow. Great on its own and a tasty choice for casseroles, full-flavoured pasta dishes, herby roast sausages and mash, and barbecues.

Low Stock Viña Bujanda Graciano Rioja 2014

Viña Bujanda Graciano Rioja 2014

Item Code: 4395414

Description

Delectable and intriguing in many ways, this Rioja is rare. It's made from pure Graciano, aged gently for a year in French oak barrels. This is a sublime red from a 5-star family estate, with red berry, plum, tea and creamy spice notes.

Carlos and Pilar Martínez Bujanda are 4th-generation winemakers who blaze a trail. Their great grandfather founded a cellar in 1889, which the siblings reimagined in 1984 with a state-of-the-art cellar, one of Spain's finest. That sealed their worldwide reputation for quality. Since then, Carlos and Pilar have founded the very beautiful Finca Valpiedra estate in the Alavesa and their most recent project, Viña Bujanda, in Oyón, where their great grandfather started the family's journey. This is fabulous red, made purely from Graciano, a variety that once was Rioja's chief grape, yet today makes up just 1%, but increasing. No surprise when you taste the sublime quality of this wine. Aged a year in French oak casks, it has matured beautifully.

Low Stock Cuatro Pasos Bierzo Mencía 2021

Cuatro Pasos Bierzo Mencía 2021

Item Code: 4361121

Description

Cuatro Pasos is a fresh, appealing red made purely from Mencía, a grape with echoes of Pinot Noir. The variety is renowned for its vibrant red fruit, floral notes and silky texture, both of which abound in this new red from Bierzo, northwest Spain.

Nearly all of the Bierzo region is dedicated to the Mencía grape, which after decades of producing wines on the tart side of fresh, has now shown its true colours. It makes wines at both ends of the spectrum - young and vibrant with bright red fruits, or from higher, lower yielding sites, more intense, earthy weightier notes, but still with a seam of minerality. This is an elegant, bright red from Katia Álvarez, one of Spain's top female winemakers. She is head of winemaking at Bodegas Cuatro Pasos, a winery named after the four paw marks of a bear discovered in their Mencía vineyards. The winery is proud to support a charity that helps to protect this near-extinct animal. Serve this charming lighter-style red cool with food or solo.

We tried lots of great rosés before tasting this – but one sip and we knew it was the winner. A vibrant style from Navarra, this latest release has even more strawberries and cream flavour than the last – plus that hallmark freshness and zing.

Low Stock Altos R Pigeage Blanco Rioja 2021

Altos R Pigeage Blanco Rioja 2021

Item Code: 2982121

Description

With three Golds and 96 points, this is a stellar white Rioja. It’s the flagship of Altos, a cellar founded in 2006 by Jean-Marc Sauboua, already with 260 Golds. Old-vine Viura and Chardonnay, fermented in barrel, it's intense, citrusy and toasty.

Haut-Brion trained Jean-Marc Sauboua was born and raised in Bordeaux, but is also half Spanish. For many years he’s made wine for us all over the world, Bordeaux in particular, but when he decided to start a project of his own, Rioja was his only thought. And only the very highest parts of the appellation. Right from the start Jean-Marc’s aim was to make a Grand Cru style of Rioja, wines full of fruit with balanced oak. Pigeage (pron. pea jarge), two reds and one white, are his flagship wines and in just 11 vintages have won over 150 Golds. Old-vine Viura and high-grown Chardonnay, fermented in French oak, this is intensely citrusy with toasty oak and mineral zip. The finest release yet thanks to a cool vintage. A superb dinner party white.

Low Stock El Bombero Gran Reserva 2017

El Bombero Gran Reserva 2017

Item Code: 2177517

Description

From award-winning winemaker Javier Domeque, El Bombero Gran Reserva is a premium edition of an old favourite. From Cariñena, synonymous with rich, dark reds and great value, this mellow 2016 Gran Reserva was aged a full three years in oak.

Big Red El Bombero has been a top choice with customers for over 20 years. And in special vintages, winemaker Javier Domeque crafts a sophisticated Gran Reserva version using the pick of the crop from his oldest vines. To qualify for Gran Reserva status, the wine is aged in oak for three years with further time in bottle prior to release. It’s made mostly from Garnacha, an important component of many full-bodied Spanish reds (and also of Châteauneuf-du-Pape), with a generous portion of juicy Tempranillo for added flavour. It's a touch more refined than El Bombero itself, but still full of rich berry flavour and with delicious spicy complexity from American oak. Drinking perfectly right now with roast lamb, game or a selection of tapas.
