Made exclusively selected old plots of Garnacha in the sun-soaked Baja region of Rioja. This soft seductive wine exhibits the typical Garnacha character of blackberries, plums, blackcurrants and cherries. The mouthfeel is soft and rounded with smooth tannins, it has a long, mouth filling finish. Aged 12 months in French and American oak.

Fincas de Azabache is a state-of-the-art cooperative, founded in December 1956 located in the town of Aldeanueva de Ebro, some 59km SE from Logroño. The Bodegas has 502 hectares of vines selected from the best family estates or ‘fincas’, grown in a continental climate between 350-600 metres above sea with both Atlantic and Mediterranean influences at the foot of Mount Yerga, which is at the heart of the driest sub region of Rioja Oriental. Their soils are alluvial and ferrous clay, that provide the wines with unique terroir traits.

ABV: 14.5%

Another winner from Domaine de la Baume

We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.

love it

Bubblicious

Delicious white wines!

I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.

Rich and fruity

This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.

A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
