Description
In a nutshell:
A bold, polished red from Navarra, with dark cherry, vanilla, and a touch of spice, all wrapped in smooth oak and plenty of character from this underrated Spanish region.
The lowdown:
This is a classic Navarra Reserva with a Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, aged 18 months in French and American oak. It's rich and layered, showing ripe red fruits, plums, and raisins, along with notes of cassis, liquorice, and cedar. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, giving it a solid structure without feeling too heavy. Rounded, mature, and nicely evolved on the finish, if you're after something polished but still full of regional character this is a good pick.
The Producer:
Situated in the small town of Azagra, on the border of Navarra and Rioja, Bodegas Manzanos is uniquely positioned to produce wines from both renowned regions. Founded in 1890, the real transformation occurred in 2010 when Victor Fernández de Manzanos, his brother David, and Laura Mateo took the helm. They revitalised the winery, introducing cutting-edge equipment and expanding their facilities. Today, they manage several hundred hectares of vines, crafting a diverse array of wines. Their Finca Manzanos, Voché, and Castillo de Enériz ranges brilliantly showcase both contemporary and traditional winemaking styles, embodying the best of both worlds.
When to drink:
A great match for Basque lamb stew, slow-roasted pork, or Manchego cheese, but it'll also handle a hearty lasagne or Sunday roast with ease - anything rich and comforting to stand up to its bold, smooth character.
