Exceptional offer! Buy 12 bottles, get 1 magnum free.
Bodegas Cienvacas is hands down one of the smartest buys in the wine world today. From the heart of Rioja, this estate delivers a brilliantly pure expression of Tempranillo — packed with energy and a bold, almost rebellious sense of freshness that’s impossible to ignore. It’s the kind of wine that catches everyone off guard — in the best possible way. |

The 2023 Rioja Alta Finca Cienvacas Red is all about easygoing pleasure, delivered with style. Made from Tempranillo grown at altitude and aged without oak, it opens generously with warm notes of candied fruit and macerated grapes. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, with rich flavours of black fruit and violet, supported by silky, well-integrated tannins. It’s juicy, expressive, and seriously satisfying — the kind of Rioja that feels both unpretentious and deliciously complete. Perfect with a grilled ribeye or a classic shallot-glazed hanger steak. Rated 90/100 by our Selection Committee — and offering unbeatable value for the sheer enjoyment it delivers. |
