Product Notes

El Coto Rioja Crianza is a splendid Spanish red wine, cherished for its robust flavours. This luxurious ruby-red wine originates from the lush vineyards of Rioja, Spain's premier wine region. The wine is made from 100% Tempranillo grapes, aged for 12 months in American oak and a further year in the bottle. With a medium body, it showcases a harmonious blend of fruity aromas, subtle oak nuances and smooth tannins. Expect hints of cherries, blackberries, and vanilla on the palate and a pleasing finish. It's a fantastic, approachable wine, perfect for a delectable dinner or a casual gathering.

Tasting Notes

This wine is a vibrant ruby red in colour with a garnet rim. Aromas of red fruits, vanilla and toast entice the nose. On the palate, the wine's silky texture is tempered by concentrated, red berry fruit and notes of sweet spice from the oak, which culminate in a juicy and persistent finish.
