"It's fruit forward and inviting on the nose, showing Black Doris plum, blueberry, olive and warm spice aromas, followed by a juicy palate offering supple texture combined with plump mouthfeel, making it soothing and immediately drinkable. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"This is one of the greatest bargains on the shelf" Paul Tudor, Master of Wine

"A perfect introduction to Tempranillo, vibrant, fruity and food-friendly" Steve Bennett, Master of Wine, Importer

A full-flavoured, soft, supple, vibrant, plummy red with refreshing acidity and rich but smooth tannins to partner with a wide variety of savoury cuisine. With a host of accolades over the past 10 vintages, this label is one of the most consistent, great-value wines on the market.

Sourced from 25-40 year-old vines grown in La Mancha and Valdepenas made by 5th generation wine producers Navarro Lopez in liaison with local wine importer and Master of Wine Steve Bennett. A wine designed to introduce Kiwi wine drinkers to the delights of Spanish wine and Spain’s signature grape variety Tempranillo.
