Viña Gala – Rioja Tinto

100% Tempranillo, 13% ABV
Available from your local Co-op for £5.49 a bottle. And a damned fine rioja it is too!
Wow - that's cheap for a decent Rioja - one of my favourite varieties. I went to the co-op today but came out with a Côtes du Rhône for tomorrow's roast beef with the family.
For those of you who are partial to Spanish Rioja, do try to check this one out:
2010 Selección de la Familia Carlos, La Mancha, Castilla VdT
http://www.laithwaites.co.uk/DWBase/...ucts/64188.png
This is an absolute stonker of a rioja! Medium bodied, 100% Tempranillo grape. 13% ABV
"Jucy summer berries with a touch of vanilla"
And the best news - only £6.99 a bottle from Laithwaite's Wine. :)
