Classic Rioja - smooth oak, not in your face! Spicey Tempranillo grape rounded off with Garnacha. Like Rioja? - Like this!

Aged for 13 months in American oak barrels and 10 months in bottle before release. It's a mix of many grapes, 85% Tempranillo, 11% Garnacha, 11% Tinta, 3% Maturana Tinta, and 1% Viura 

It scored 90/100 from Tim Atkin M.W.

Sometimes you just know when things are right. Each wine in Martinez Alesan’s collection is impressive and enjoyable, and then followed by another wine equally enjoyable. Each wine has a purpose, a point of difference and a story. The brand-new tasting room has panoramic views over the red soils of the Upper Najerilla towards the Sierra Cantabria which between them largely define the microclimate and wine styles.

Good with Rioja-style potatoes, made with authentic Riojan chorizo and dried choricero peppers; as well as the freshest potatoes possible
