2005 Pradoayala

Just in from our old friend Pedro Azcunaga is his wonderful 2005 Pradoayala.  Customers familiar with Pedro’s Solar de Ayala will recognise his craft, and his blend of 80% temperanillo and 20% graciano.  As well as being an all-round great guy, Pedro shares our quest to bring quality wine to people at prices that make sense.  With 18 months in barrique, and a year in bottle before release, this modern style of Rioja evokes the scent of vanilla with rich ripe fruit.  When you taste it, the fruit comes through and you are reminded of a rich fruit compote with a hint of chocolate .  At £8.99 a bottle, this is seriously good wine for drinking now or keeping.  It goes particularly well with our lap snacks!
