2023 Emilio Moro Finca Resalso Ribera del Duero
Winery Notes-Finca Resalso is the name of the historic vineyard that was planted in 1932, the year in which Emilio Moro, second generation and father of the third generation of the Moro family, was born. The winery’s youngest wine was first released in 1994 and its release generated a great stir in Ribera del Duero as it was the first young wine to incorporate oak in its production. Cherry red in colour with violet tones, it has a very expressive and fruity bouquet, where the personality of the 2023 vintage is reflected through the fruit balance, more inclined to red fruits. That said, the brand’s characteristic notes of black fruits with lactic nuances are also present. It is balanced and ripe, with a very pleasant and tasty palate that makes it a very appetising and easy wine to drink.$15.9012 -

2016 López de Heredia Viña Cubillo Crianza Rioja
Winery Notes- Redolent of red fruits, tomato and mint, equal parts rustic and refined, this earthy, lively red bears no resemblance to the current “international” style of Rioja, nor to the pale, oaky, “smooth” overcropped wines of the 1970’s. Cubillo stands out in today’s wine universe for the mannerliness and clarity of its expression and its unmistakable class.$25.906 -
2020 Marqués de Murrieta Reserva Rioja

2019 La Rioja Alta Viña Alberdi Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- Bright, deep ruby colour with intense dark cherry hues on the rim of the glass. It stands out for its intense ripe red fruit aromas like strawberries, raspberries and redcurrants complemented by pleasantly sweet spicy notes of vanilla, caramel, cinnamon, clove and nutmeg.

2021 Bodegas Muga El Andén De La Estación Rioja
Muga El Andén de la Estación Crianza is a new project launched in 2020 by the Muga family. As one of the most traditional yet forward thinking viticultural families in Rioja, the bodega has made significant investments in new vineyard holdings through planting and acquiring parcels from growers over the last 30 years. Andén de la Estación, a name which pays homage to the train station that was responsible for shipping wine from Rioja to Bordeaux during the phylloxera, was born out of the family's desire to produce a traditional style classically gastronomic Rioja Crianza, with a profile showcasing the Muga signature complemented by a youthful and fresh profile.$16.9013 -
2019 Bodegas Muga Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- This 2019 Reserva has a bright, ruby-red color, with medium depth and a garnet tinged rim. On the nose it proves to be a wine which is complex in aroma, in which primary aromas of fruit such as blueberries are enhanced by spicy nuances. On the palate it is long, balanced and elegant, with perfectly integrated acidity and smooth tannins. The finish is very long and fruity.$29.905 -
2021 Dominio de Pingus Psi Ribera del Duero
Winery Notes- PSI is the 23rd letter in the Greek alphabet and is the name of Peter Sisseck's (of the coveted Pingus and Flor de Pingus) utopian wine from Ribera del Duero. Peter has sought out the best independent vineyard growers in Ribera and is incentivizing them to improve viticultural practices and shun chemicals, lower yields and practice biodynamics by paying them increasingly for the fruit as they improve. The result is a "give back" to the region wine that also expresses the "soul" of Ribera.$29.9012 -
2015 López de Heredia Viña Cubillo Crianza Rioja
Winery Notes- Redolent of red fruits, tomato and mint, equal parts rustic and refined, this earthy, lively red bears no resemblance to the current “international” style of Rioja, nor to the pale, oaky, “smooth” overcropped wines of the 1970’s. Cubillo stands out in today’s wine universe for the mannerliness and clarity of its expression and its unmistakable class.$24.908 -
2011 López de Heredia Viña Bosconia Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- Bosconia tends to be rounder and earthier than Tondonia, leading to Burgundy/Bordeaux comparisons. The vineyard is significantly smaller than Tondonia, which means that the supply is much more limited, which is sad for the secret circle that has a sneaking preference for Bosconia’s more sensual charms.$37.9012 -
2011 López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- Tondonia typically stays in the oak a year longer than Bosconia, so this was released later. Despite the extra wood, sweet fruit and lead pencil notes dominate this wine, whose brightness and liveliness promise decades of potential. Ancient vines and great know-how ensure that Tondonia always delivers the goods. This is the one wine offered us by Lopez de Heredia whose supply is essentially unrestricted, so have at it! We do not know of a more consistent wine in existence.$49.9014 -
2010 Faustino I Gran Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo, the three classic Rioja grape varieties. Graciano provides a very lively color and high acidity; Mazuelo flavour and abundant tannin, both together with Tempranillo are the perfect coupage for long ageing wines. True to Rioja, true to its origins. Cherry red developing to an intense ruby color. Intense and complex. Well integrated sweet and warm hints with ripe fruit, notes of vanilla and sensations of cinnamon, blond tobacco and cocoa. Elegant in the mouth, structured and with good acidity. The finish is sweet and surprising for a Rioja Gran Reserva. There is an aftertaste of the blend of very ripe fruit, vanilla and roasted notes.$34.909 -
2018 Sierra Cantabria Unica Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- Bright ruby. Expressive aromas of redcurrant, cherry, licorice. Juicy in the mouth, with red fruit flavors mixed with toasty vanilla and underlying mineral notes. Penetrating acidity extends the long, spicy, floral-dominated finish.$29.9011 -
2019 CVNE Cune Crianza Rioja

2018 Izadi Reserva Rioja
The 2018 Izadi Reserva Rioja is a captivating representation of the renowned Spanish wine region. From the moment it meets the nose, it entices with a delightful blend of red berries, ripe cherries, and a hint of plum, all elegantly intertwined with subtle hints of vanilla and cedar from oak aging. On the palate, this Reserva reveals its depth and complexity. Flavors of dark fruit, like blackberries and currants, mingle harmoniously with notes of tobacco, leather, and a touch of spice, reflecting the terroir and meticulous winemaking. Its fine-grained tannins provide structure without overwhelming, while the well-balanced acidity keeps the wine fresh and inviting. The finish is enduring and satisfying, leaving behind a lingering echo of dark chocolate and a whisper of smokiness. The 2018 Izadi Reserva Rioja is a testament to the timeless allure of Rioja wines, showcasing both tradition and innovation in every sip.$19.901 -
2019 Teso La Monja Romanico Toro
The Eguren family of Teso la Monja are one of D.O. Toro's most important pioneers, having cofounded Bodega Numanthia-Termes with Jorge Ordóñez in 1997. Numanthia was the first exhaustive fine wine project to resuscitate Toro since before phylloxera. Toro is one of Spain's most historic winemaking regions. Tempranillo originated in the Duero Valley, and many ampelographers believe that it originated in Toro, where it is known as Tinta de Toro. These ancient clones of Tempranillo were responsible for Toro being celebrated as Spain's finest winemaking region during the Middle Ages. Toro was also Spain's only region to completely resist phylloxera due to its sandy soils. Teso la Monja is the Eguren family's new interpretation of Toro after Numanthia, where they sought to produce a more refined and restrained expression of Toro by focusing on northern facing vineyard sites planted on clay soils covered in canto rodado.$16.906 -
2012 Bodegas Sierra Cantabria Gran Reserva Rioja
Winery Notes- Garnet red cherry. Intense aroma, fragrant, complex with aromatic notes, mature red fruits, balsamic, truffle, vanilla, and toast. On the palate, it is vigorous, fresh, and silky, with a good presence of mature tannins and a development of complex aromas. Red fruits perfectly integrated with touches of balsamic, coffee, and oak. Long-lasting finish with hints of fruit, spice, and cocoa.$39.905 -
2017 Señorio de San Vicente Rioja
Winery Notes- In the early 1980’s, Marcos and Miguel Angel Eguren requested that their father scour the family’s 100 Ha of vineyards in San Vicente de la Sonsierra for the lowest yielding individual vines of Tempranillo. In 1985, the family planted the 18 Ha. La Canoca single vineyard in San Vicente to a massal selection of these low yielding plants. As the vineyard took shape, the vines all shared similar ampelographic characteristics – smaller berries, looser clusters, and a velvety bloom on the subsurface of the leaves. The family was mocked for planting a selection of their “worst vines.” When the first vintage of San Vicente was commercialized almost 10 years later, the family endured more derision when the wine was priced above any Reserva in the appellation. The following year, the wine was released without ageing classification, becoming Rioja’s first single cru ageing declassified wine. For lovers of the Eguren family’s wines, San Vicente tends to elicit a special emotion as one of Rioja's first exhaustive projects to release a premium cuvée that expressed the character of a specific vineyard cru. Today, San Vicente is recognized as one of the appellations most important modern classics.$63.903
