Spaans High End

The Sierra Cantabria Crianza is a wonderfully full Rioja, but in balance. Definitely recommended. This wine is made from the Tempranillo. The Crianza has been matured for 14 months in French and American oak. Its color is ruby red with light violet in the edges of the glass. In the nose, a bouquet of red fruits (currants, blackcurrants) with nice intensity, hints of roasted coffee, graphite and vanilla. Its taste has a good structure, good balance between tannins, alcohol and acids. We can also recommend the entire series of Hermanos Eguren/Sierra Cantanbria wines. Absolute Top Riojas.

While you wait for the 'great' wines of Moro to reach their peak, you can already fully enjoy this fruity, youthful Tempranillo from Emilio Moro. The Finca Resalso comes from the (relatively) younger vines. In the glass, the wine has a cherry red color with purple hues. In the nose, the aroma and intensity of the wine stimulates the senses. Pure fruit enjoyment of strawberries, cherries, raspberry liquorice and black forest fruits. The Finca Resalso is lively, with a spicy touch and just enough structure due to the 4 months aging in French barriques. It is a very fine wine with a well-developed structure that makes it very pleasant to drink. The Resalso has an excellent price-quality ratio. In the April edition of Hubrecht Duijker, the Finca Resalso by Emilio Moro receives a favorable assessment and the designation 'Recommended'.

The Hado is a wine with which the renowned winemaker Carlos San Pedro wants to represent the house style of Bodegas Pujanza, and the new wave of Rioja wines focused on the fruit in which the wood should not dominate. In addition, Carlos wants to have a wine that is accessible in terms of price and that has more than succeeded with the Hado. The Hado is a medium-bodied, clean and serious wine. In the nose the wine is nicely ripe but certainly not overripe. Beautiful notes of wood and spices which are very well integrated in both the nose and the palate. In the mouth it has fine tannins. A very elegant wine. 92/100 Parker & 91/100 Suckling
