More information
The Manzanos family have 125 years of wine history to draw upon as grape growers. Yet they aren’t hidebound by tradition, but are some of the region’s most innovative and exciting producers. Since 2010, the fifth generation, brothers David and Victor, have been at the helm, thrust into the limelight after the death of their father. Their modern winery is in the heart of the Rioja region, where the rivers Ebro and Ega come together, and here they enjoy superb terroir for growing grapes. 2016 has been called an exceptional vintage, so expect lots of deep ripe fruit and juicy length in this thoroughly enjoyable Tempranillo. Pure fruit and little oak – this is enjoyable to drink any time on its own, with chicken dishes or with vegetable kebabs.
