Out of stockJorge Ordonez is a talented taster. Avante is the proof. Located in Pedrosa del Duero one of the most highly respected Terrroir in Ribera del Duero, Avante is sourced from a vineyards planted in 1960 and is aged 22 months in French oak. We used to have the 2011 a year ago, and the wine as mind-blowing. Now we carry the fantastic 2014 that needs another 2/3 years to show its full potential. A great bargain if you have that possibility, for less than 20 euros! I have actually bought 6 bottles myself, and I know that in just a few years I will be drinking a really fine wine. Take my words!

Bagus or Galo's pride!!! Galo being the owner...of course! So far, this is Lopez Cristobal top wine. Exclusively produced from very old vines, this 100% Tempranillo is aged for 14 months in french and American oak. Full-bodied and complex red wines. intense, concentrated but elegant too. Although this 2015 is drinking well now, it will deserve a short cellaring time in order to make the most of it. just another year or two..

San Vicente 100% Tempranillo Peludo, a clone of tempranillo. It is hard work for the viticulture as it is a lot more prone to disease and also deliver very little volume, but the wines are perfumed, elegant, concentrated. surely a great Rioja! the 18has of the Canoca vineyard was planted in 1985 by Marcos and Miguel father, and they released the first vintage in 1991. Since then San Vicente has become a reference, a totally deserved notoriety! It is perfumed, fresh and concentrated with silky tannins. Need to be decanted, 1 hour before (at least)
