2016 Viña Cubillo Tinto, Crianza, Bodegas R. López de Heredia, Rioja, Spain

Description

Bodegas R Lopez de Heredia makes some of the greatest Riojas, and this stunning sip is one of them. With ripe, appetisingly savoury, herby, floral fruit and and a fragrant sweet sandalwood finish, it's the bees knees and tailor-made for roasted meats and strong cheeses.

50 Best Red and Rosé Wines, Jane MacQuitty, The Times (July 2024)

The 2016 Crianza Viña Cubillo, from Haro in Rioja Alta, underwent a three-year aging process in used oak barrels. Garnet in color, the wine reveals enticing notes of cherry marmalade, complemented by herbal, mint-like hints. Dry, intense and fairly grippy, the 2016 also features a mild chalky texture. Firm and juicy with a vibrant core, it presents itself as a flavorful red in its primary state. I anticipate that further bottle-aging will unlock deeper complexities, and I look forward to revisiting it in the years to come.
