The Villa de Corullón 2023 from Descendientes de J. Palacios embodies the elegance and complexity of the Bierzo region in northern Spain. This red wine is made from 100% Mencía grapes and impressively demonstrates how this variety comes into its own in this region—both with strong character and delicate finesse.

The vineyards are situated on steep slopes with slate-rich soils, which lend the wine its distinctive minerality and fresh, lively structure. The grapes are carefully harvested to preserve the natural aromas and the expressiveness of the terroir.

In the glass, the Villa de Corullón Mencía 2023 presents a clear ruby red color. The nose is dominated by aromas of red and black fruits, floral violet notes, subtle spices, and a hint of anise, underscored by a delicate mineral note. On the palate, the wine displays balance, elegance, and depth, with ripe tannins and a long-lasting, harmonious finish.

This red wine pairs excellently with grilled lamb, mushroom risotto, or aromatic game dishes such as venison or roe deer. Its complex aromas are best appreciated at a serving temperature of 16–18°C.

The Villa de Corullón Menica 2023 is an expressive ambassador for Bierzo and impresses with its delicate minerality, fruity precision, and elegant length.

Aalto

There are quite a few people who claim that Aalto wines represent the best of Spanish viticulture in the Ribera del Duero region. Every year, the Aalto wines are once again compared to those produced by the Vega Sicilia estate, and the Aalto wines often win by a nose. For more than 30 years, Mariano García Fernández, the founder of the Aalto winery, was responsible for the wines produced by the Vega Sicilia estate, of which he was the Technical Director. With his own Bodega Aalto, García Fernández wants to achieve the best result without losing respect for the grapes. In creating his wines, he strives for the maximum expression of the terroir, uniting structure and power with elegance and complexity. The Aalto was characterised by a warm winter’s end and an early spring with early flowering. Sufficient rain in summer and a dry autumn led to grapes of an optimal quality. The grapes come mainly from very old vines that are up to 80 years old.The pure varietal Tempranillo (in the Burgos and Valladolid region better known as Tinto Fino) is a cherry red in colour. The wine offers fine notes of spices on the nose, along with light flavours of well-integrated wood. On the palate, the Aalto is wonderfully fresh and dense. Notes of tobacco, coffee and subtle aromas of liquorice reveal the unique style so typical of this Aalto. Due to its soft and round character, the wine can already be enjoyed young. Owing to the soft, enclosing tannins and a good acidity, the Aalto will increase its complexity over the coming years. The ageing of the wine in half new and half used barrels ofAmerican and French oak ensures that it will store well in the bottle. Enjoy the Aalto with a lovely beef roast or simply on its own in front of the fireplace.

Vega Sicilia Macán Clásico Rioja DOC 2020

The Macán Clásico is a joint venture between the Rothschild and Álvarez families that, since 2009, has been interpreting the diversity and terroir of Rioja in a distinctive style. For the 2020 vintage, in addition to Tempranillo, small amounts of Garnacha and Graciano from selected plots were included for the first time to further enhance the wine’s complexity and freshness. The grapes come from vines averaging 40 years old, grown in the premier vineyards of San Vicente de la Sonsierra, Labastida, Ábalos, Navaridas, and Elvillar at an elevation of approximately 500 meters. The grapes are hand-harvested into 12-kg crates and carefully selected. Aging takes place over 16 months in barriques and large oak barrels. The wine then matures for an additional 28 months in the bottle, during which time it develops its characteristic balance, elegance, and complexity.On the nose, the Macán Clásico is powerful yet refined, with a multi-layered bouquet. On the palate, it harmoniously combines richness and elegance. Its balanced structure, precise fruit, and fine tannins lend it depth, while the vintage’s freshness and the Graciano component provide additional vibrancy and a long, balanced finish.This Rioja pairs excellently with braised lamb, beef tenderloin, game dishes, and aged Manchego. Thanks to its structure and aging potential, it also makes an outstanding accompaniment to festive meals and special occasions.
