Description
In a nutshell:
A great little Rioja Crianza that's had 12 months in barrel giving it a nice roundness and some light oaky spices.
The lowdown:
Fermentation in stainless steel is followed by 18 months in French and American oak and then 6 months in bottle before release - which is what's required of a Crianza. This gives it the touches of spice and mellow tannins that balance the bright, fresh red fruits and blueberry flavours perfectly. The blend of grapes is mostly Tempranillo with some Garnacha and a little Mazuelo.
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:
It's easy going, medium bodied and perfect with chargrilled meat, cured ham or tapas.
Suitable for Vegans
