"Rich but not over-ripe, this is typical of the full-bodied, yet structured style that Contino produces. Deeply coloured and aromatic, it unfurls flavours of tobacco, liquorice, plum and blackberry, supported by subtle oak and the acidity that’s a feature of the site."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
Spain's noble red grape, producing structured, savory wines of red fruit and leather that respond beautifully to oak aging in Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
