Everyone loves good Rioja, but for added toasty oak and depth step up to Reserva level. Here's one from 2014, already with five years' age. It was matured for two of those in French oak barrel and 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 oak. Rich aromas of dried berries and vanilla, hallmark red berry and sweet spice flavours and silky texture – impressively smooth. Serve with slow cooked lamb shanks.
