Thanks for a fantastic tasting yesterday with the team to look at the slice of Rioja that is .wine. Yesterday the team jumped on google meets for a refresher on these wines, what a treat that was! We look far too serious in these photos 🫠 but trust us, we were excited!!
Bideona - means “the good way” in Basque :)
We tasted the noble grapes of Rioja;
Viura and of course, Tempranillo🍷
Such freshness in these wines, due to the use of Rioja Alevesa (higher altitude sites with concentrated limestone content in the soil) fruit, where Sam looks to make wines that are more “naked” than the typical Rioja wines, wearing less makeup, and encouraging the wines to have higher drinkability, less density, and showcase exciting flavours like black cherry, the finest dark chocolate, and spicy clove, oof 👌🏻
The main principals of are:
⚜️Authenticity
⚜️Sustainability
⚜️Competitiveness
We could go on about their incredible sustainability practises but we’ll save that for another post...
TLDR; If you are looking for the best possible value Rioja, get in touch! 🍷🍷🍷
