Mencia is a grape variety that flies under the radar, but time and time again delivers fresh and exciting wines that are also incredibly affordable. Jet black in the glass, this wine is brimming with flavours of wild plum and mountain herbs with a velvety finish. 97 Points Best in Show at the Decanter World Wine Awards 2020. Mencía is a great food wine (or better yet, while you're cooking) but can also age well after a few years.

Dive into a glass of Spain's wild side with this distinctive Albillo Real. Sourced from 70-year-old vines in the sandy-granite soils of Cebreros, this white is anything but ordinary. Cold-macerated with skins for three days, spontaneously fermented, and aged for 8 months in 700-litre earthenware jars, it's complex and expressive. Aromatic notes of honeysuckle, fennel, apricot, and a touch of honey meet a powerful, velvety, and long palate, accented by a striking minerality. The Wine Advocate awarded it 92 points, noting its clean and varietal notes, mellow texture, and almost salty twist in the finish. This is a wine that demands attention and rewards with every sip. Perfect for pairing with white fish, cheeses, poultry, or even a succulent piece of veal. A golden, citrusy journey through a nearly forgotten grape and a rising star region.

A cult Spanish classic. Crafted from estate-grown Tempranillo, this international favourite embodies the winemaking heritage of Ribera del Duero. With vibrant fruit, silky tannins, and remarkable aging potential, this timeless wine is a true icon, once dubbed 'the Pétrus of Spain' by Robert Parker. Lovely to drink on release, but could age for 10+ years. At its best served with bbqs or rich roasts. This 2020 vintage was awarded 91 pts by Tim Atkin.
