Volume 3: Spanish Gold
Gran Reservas and Grander Values
|
|
|
|
Vega Sicilia and Pingus may headline Spanish wine collecting—but they’re just the tip of the iceberg. And while we’d never turn down a glass of either, Spain has far more to offer than just its top trophy wines—or the tired, oaky Rioja lining your local supermarket shelf. In fact, there’s a whole world of Spanish reds that deserve pride of place in the cellar and offer exceptional value in the fine wine landscape.
|
This week we're offering seven spectacular Spanish reds - three wines from the legendary Vega Sicilia stable, two stand-outs from La Rioja Alta (one of the greatest values anywhere in Europe), a beautifully aged Gran Reserva from Ramirez de Ganuza, and a cult icon in Commando G's La Bruja de Rozas (if you know, you know - and if you don't read this)! Whether you're buying for near-term drinking or long-term cellaring, this offer has something for everyone - happy hunting!
