The Wine
Vintage after vintage, this proves to be our bestselling Rioja. It’s a lot to do with the wine’s enticing berry aromas, silky texture and luscious flavour. The talent behind this contemporary, fruit driven red is the young and infectiously keen Javier Murúa. His father Julián owns Bodegas Muriel (a winery Julián’s parents established in 1926) in Rioja's superior Alavesa. We have a fabulous working relationship with the family, ensuring our buyer Beth goes in straight after vintage and gets first refusal on the finest vats. With its mouthfilling, red berry flavours and fragrant vanilla character, this supple Rioja is most enjoyable both on its own and with all sorts of simple suppers. Very handy, too, in this nifty little half bottle size.

Fantastic! An excellent, fruity, full-bodied wine!
