Voché Rioja Blanco

Grapes: Vuira (51%), Chardonnay (49%)
ABV: 13.5%
Altolandon Mil Historias Organic Garnacha 2020
Regular price £14.95Intense and bright picota cherry colour. The nose is clean and intense, lots of black fruits, candy and floral notes. A medley of plum, strawberry, black cherry and black currant with undertones of white pepper, earthy notes, and a very pleasant balsamic end with a hint of sweetness. This is elegant, crisp with mineral undertones and notes of rosemary and cedar that emerge as the wine evolves – not to mention the sweet but vibrant tannins that promise a bright future.

Organic
As the lands starts to rise, inland northwest of Valencia, you will find Roselia Molina heading up Bodegas Altolandon. The property consists of 120 hectares with the winery resting right in the centre, not only making it aesthetically satisfying but also extremely practical. At 1,100 metres above sea level, the altitude serves to benefit the grapes with large diurnal variations which encourage even ripening and also helping retain their natural acidity. Organic methods are used to manage the vines utilising only natural fertilisers and some green pruning to further guarantee the quality of fruit prior to hand-harvesting. The grapes are vinified as naturally as possible with native yeasts and little other intervention. The wines are then aged in French oak and some in clay amphora to retain purity, but build complexity.
Finca Constancia Parcela 12 Graciano
Regular price £15.95Parcela 12 is made of 100% Graciano. Graciano, until recently was the colour and alcohol addition to the blend for Rioja. Here, it is very much a stand-alone grape in it’s own right. This single parcel of Graciano is planted on granite soil which adds freshness and minerality to the wine. Matured for 8 months in French oak barrels, gives nuances of cocoa, balsamic and sweet spice. Subtle floral notes and juicy fresh blackberry, plum and red cherry fruits. Powerful and full bodied, yet smooth almost sweet tannins and an intense finish. Complex, elegant and fruit driven. Great wine for the money.
