Everyone loves good Rioja. Now take a step up to Reserva level, and enjoy this 2013 with six years' age. It was matured for over a year in barrel, the rest in bottle to produce a Rioja of perfect balance and depth. Pagos de Tahola comes from the Chavarri family – Francisco and daughter Ruth form a winning partnership with winemaker Miguel Lopez Nuñez. Their exemplary wines are based on exuberant fruit harvested from mature vines in some of Rioja’s highest vineyards, then infused with the signature fragrance of quality French and US oak. Rich aromas of dried berries and vanilla, red berry and sweet spice flavours and a silky texture – impressively smooth and long in flavour. Serve with Spanish style rice dishes, tapas or grilled meats.
