🌟 A bold, elegant Crianza from Spain’s hidden gem of Cigales—layered, expressive, and finely structured.

👁 In the Glass:
Deep cherry red with violet hues—bright and intense.

👃 On the Nose:
An inviting bouquet of blackcurrant, cassis, and ripe plum, woven with notes of vanilla, clove, licorice, and a touch of toasted oak. A hint of spice and dark chocolate rounds out the aromatic complexity.

👅 On the Palate:
Silky and concentrated, with a rich core of dark fruit. Well-integrated oak adds warmth and texture, while fine acidity brings lift and balance. Hints of black pepper and earthy spice lead to a persistent, elegant finish.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Pair with roast lamb, grilled ribeye, venison stew, or manchego cheese. Also perfect with mushroom paella or chargrilled vegetables.

⏳ Enjoyment Window:
Ready to enjoy now, but with structure and acidity that will evolve beautifully over the next 5–7 years.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Vinea Crianza is a superb expression of Tempranillo outside the Rioja spotlight—concentrated yet graceful, and beautifully aged for complexity. With its blend of spice, structure, and ripe fruit, this is classic Spanish character with a modern, polished edge. A serious wine that punches well above its price point.
