El Coto CRIANZA Rioja
Description: El Coto De Rioja vinified its first grapes in 1970, and this vintage was released in 1975. In its brief history El Coto has been aiming for continuous improvement and development, while all the resources generated are automatically reinvested. This is a basic line the policy of a 'bodega' that is all the time seeking to improve its wines and its activities. The El Coto vineyards are located in Cenicero , close to the Najerilla river , facing Northwest and with a, predominantly, ferric-clayey soil. The rest of the grapes come from selected winegrowers in Rioja Alavesa. Fermented in stainless steel vats for 20-25 days, with frequent remontages and extended maceration in order to achieve the right equilibrium among the fruity and the tannic sides of the extract. This wine is aged for 14 months in American white oak from the Northern Appalachian mountains in U.S.A. These barriques have a 225 litres capacity, are medium toasted and previously dried for two years. The wine is then aged in bottle for at least 6months. This Red ruby coloured Tempranillo is harmonic, well balanced, with vanilla and oak hints. Soft and long in the mouth this wine shows a fantastic fruit concentration combining the subtle strawberry aromas so typical of the Rioja Tempranillo with the notorious vanilla bouquet of the American oak.

W & J Graham's 2000 Vintage Port
Description: After the harvest, wines of Vintage potential are put into oak barrels called 'pipes'. Some eighteen months later a careful and painstaking series of tastings is held to judge exactly which wines of different vineyards merit inclusion in the final blend. If the ideal blend is achieved, the wine is then bottled without any filtration whatsoever approximately 24 months after the original harvest. It was immediately evident during the vintage that the wines would be very intense and fruity. This has been borne out by their development and Graham's 1994 Vintage is rich, deep coloured and packed with fruit. It is distinctly reminiscent of the Graham's 1970. One of the top wines of the Vintage, to keep. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £750.17
