“This delicious, soft, characterful, everyday-drinking wine illustrates just why Rioja is Spain’s most popular red wine.” (Steve Bennett MW, importer)
There’s nobody else in NZ more qualified (literally) to deliver quality, bang for buck imported wine than Master of Wine Steve Bennett. As another MW Bob Campbell puts it – “Steve has built his reputation on the quality of his imports.”
The Vina Amate label is producing by the Aldenueva Cooperative from the village of the same name. They’re a collective of over 900 farmers who sell their grapes to them, using different soil types and altitudes and vine ages ranging from 50 to 100 years old.
A fruit forward style Tempranillo that’s soft and juicy with a touch of spice and oh so easy to enjoy! Grab yourself some and pair with grilled vegetables, pizza, pasta or with lamb skewers.
