Made mostly from Tempranillo, with a touch of Graciano, and aged in French oak, this delicious Crianza Rioja is effortlessly inviting with notes of strawberry, dark cherries and spicey liquorice, rounding out a well-balanced and concentrated palate. Simple and delicious, you'd be hard-pushed to find a better wine at this price point.

About Bodegas las Orcas

We stumbled upon Raimundo Abando of Bodegas Las Orcas while searching for a more traditional style of Rioja at a fantastic price. Rai used to compete in triathlons at an international level, but now puts all his energy into producing and ageing some very elegant Rioja. He is the 3rd generation of winemakers in his family, dating back to 1900. Most of the production is Tempranillo but he also makes a great-value white from Viura and some wines contain a touch of Graciano. The Rioja Alavesa is sheltered from the hotter conditions lower down the Ebro valley by the Cantabrian Mountains, enabling Rai to make wines with higher acidity, lower alcohol and more freshness.
