Wine Enthusiast Magazine #1 Best Buy of 2020!!

Founded in 1874 in La Rioja Alta, in the region of Fuenmayor, Bodegas Montecillo is the third oldest winery in Rioja. Its quality has lasted over 135 successful years in wine production. This Crianza is carefully fermented over 20 days at controlled temperature. The wine then aged in American oak barrels.


Wine Enthusiast Magazine named this #1 on the Top 100 Best Buys of 2020. scoring it 90 points they said "Fresh berry and red plum aromas are lifted by complementary notes of oak grain and vanilla. This value-priced crianza from a very good year feels flush but primed by punchy acidity. Red plum, berry and a hint of wood spice make for a classic Rioja flavor profile, while this remains tasty and fresh on the finish."
