About the wine
Deep, dark and outrageously velvety Tempranillo
- We’ve made $5 million available to help struggling wineries to survive and come out the other side of this Covid crisis. The closure of bars and restaurants across the globe has been a disaster for the independent winemakers who supply them. The little guys, without connections to the big supermarkets, are the ones who are suffering the most.
- One of the worst places in the world to be a small, family winemaker right now is Northern Spain. For the little guys - who sell most of their stock to local bars, cafes and restaurants - the toughest lockdown in Europe has spelled disaster for their business.
- A deep, dark and outrageously velvety red that knows just how to tread the perfect balance between rich smokiness and more delicate flavours of cherries and vanilla. Purpose made with fresh fruitiness in mind, this is no big red bruiser but rather a thoughtful and refined wine with a very impressive lightness of touch.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Marta Ramas & Miguel Fisac
- Don't let their fresh faces fool you! Between them, this couple have enough winemaking knowledge to fill several encyclopedias on the subject and racked up enough air miles to rival even the oldest hands in the game.
- Starting their careers with a prestigious wine course in Bordeaux, the pair quickly graduated on to working amongst the vines of the equally prestigious Saint-Emilion and Péssac Léognan regions. The winemaking bug firmly took hold, leading Marta and Miguel to find themselves working on new wines in Hawkes Bay, Napa Valley and The Cape in South Africa.
- Encyclopedic wine brains full to bursting, the couple decided it was time to pack up what they'd learnt over their years of travel, come down from the clouds and focus on roots. They returned home to Spain where they've been making stunningly intense wines in the heart of the highly sought after Ribera del Duero, ever since.
