A lighter style Rioja with no oak ageing. ripe plums and orange blossom, the tannins are fine and there is a long fruit driven finish. The lack of oak means that the grape dominates the wine with a purity of fruit. Lanzaga is the second vineyard site of established Spanish winemakers Remelluri. The site cooler in temperature than most of Rioja and the rest is a fresher, light and more lively Rioja furthered by the distinct lack of oak ageing.

CVNE
37.5cl half-bottle
- £16
In a convenient half-bottle size, the CVNE Imperial Reserva 2017 from Rioja sets a high bar. This Rioja, primarily tempranillo with touches of garnacha and graciano, comes from 40-year-old vines in Rioja Alta. The meticulous effort shows: think inviting aromas of pencil shavings and vanilla, backed by intense dark fruits and smooth tannins. Perfectly drinkable on its own, but if paired with lamb ragu? Simply delicious.
