Mission Codename Flamenco on my palate

Yummy, juicy, 91-rated Rioja for 15 bucks?

Geddoutahere!

Umm, we mean stay here for a while and shop away. We’ve got not just this INSANE VALUE today but 5 significant others in the Store here to pick and choose your Rioja as you wish. All great buys in their own right, some are rated BIG and priced accordingly (thanks to deep deals that is) and some are “why not by the case” kinda bargains. Indulge yourself, there’s a Rioja for everyone!

Sometimes, we’re sure that if we could pour wine into your mouth, or offer a scratch and sniff email, you’d buy it with 1000% confidence.

Like this one. The risk is low. So is the price. FIFTEEN dollars, people. Chill it a bit and make it your GO TO summer red. Make it a secret ingredient for the best sangrias in your hood without guilt. You know Rioja delivers exceptional value, and this is proof. If you have any space in your Locker and need a few bottles to fill it up and ship it out, make it happen with this friendly little fruit bomb.

Succulent ripe strawberries? Check. Crunchy plum? Check. Salami savoriness? Check! Insanity levels of deliciousness. Watermelon levels of refreshing. This flashes the juicy side of Tempranillo, and we’re here for it. Racy and ebullient red fruits collide with savory spices and gentle whispers of oak. While you’re waiting for the Reservas and Gran Reservas to hit their peak drinking windows, enjoy this all day. Tempranillo with a vivid vibe, all lightness on its feet, and a delicious fruit-driven, in-your-face personality. YUM!

We LOVE it. So did Best Sommelier of the World winner Andreas Larsson. So will you, we KNOW it. But still can’t get over the fact that it’s 15 bucks from one of the world’s most celebrated fine wine regions.

Happy (self-proclaimed) Rioja Day Operatives! Buy abundantly, drink responsibly…

91 Points – Andreas Larsson

“Dark purple center and a lighter rim. Pure and youthful nose, dark berries, cassis with meaty and peppery notes, rather mild oak underneath. Savory with ripe dark berry flavors, supple tannin and a fresh backbone of acidity, attractive fruit, and good length.”
