    Distinctive peppery aromas with spicy, wild bramble berries, violets and wild red fruit. The palate holds fine-grained tannins and delivers a taut, linear and unwavering texture. Succulent, refined and regal. Pure red-cherry finish. Superb. Faultless. Tempranillo with graciano. Try from 2021.

    I'm blown away by the quality of the 2015 Tabuerniga, one of three new single-vineyard bottlings from Rioja introduced in the 2014 vintage. For some reason, I didn't taste this wine when I tasted the 2015 Las Beatas last year, and it was released some time ago (I'm also tasting the 2016, which should be the current release now). But I wanted to taste it now, and I found it extremely good, almost as good as Las Beatas, and an absolute must, especially at the price it sells for. I know I'm going to regret it, because, as it has happened with wines like Las Beatas and Les Vignes de Mon Père (from Ganevat), my score and write up is going to make it harder for me to find the wine in the future. But I just cannot recommend it hard enough for our readers. And the thing is, the 2016 I tasted next to it is even better!

Bodega Lanzaga, Spain
Compañía de Vinos Telmo Rodriguez was founded in 1994. Telmo - a self-professed “driving winemaker”- came to Rioja searching for the soul of the region, returning to the villages where a few special plots express themselves. Lanciego is a village in the foothills of the Sierra de Cantabria mountains, reflecting the contrasting contributions of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic influences. Native grape varieties, grown on the best soils and subject to the best viticulture are the philosophical tenets, allowing the wines to express their innate qualities thanks to simple, but scientifically-grounded winemaking.

Hailed as the star red variety in Spain’s most celebrated wine region, Tempranillo from Rioja, or simply labeled, “Rioja,” produces elegant wines with complex notes of red and black fruit, crushed rock, leather, toast and tobacco, whose best examples are fully capable of decades of improvement in the cellar.

Rioja wines are typically a blend of fruit from its three sub-regions: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental, although specific sub-region (zonas), village (municipios) and vineyard (viñedo singular) wines can now be labeled. Rioja Alta and Alavesa, at the highest elevations, are considered to be the source of the brightest, most elegant fruit, while grapes from the warmer and drier, Rioja Oriental, produce wines with deep color, great body and richness.
