Anyday Spanish Reds Case

Rioja is Spain's pre-eminent wine region, renowned for its graceful, stylish wines, mainly from the tempranillo grape. The Society's Rioja is made in the classic, traditional style that Society members so adore by Bodegas Palacio, who are based in the spectacular fortified village of Laguardia. Ageing in oak for 15 months results in a smooth, mellow and juicy tempranillo with red-fruit flavour complemented by hallmark savoury, leathery complexity. The ageing of wine in barrels is absolutely integral to winemaking in Rioja, and our new label for this member favourite pays homage to the cooperage tools that are used to make these traditional vessels.

A delightful, bright and juicy garnacha-dominant blend with a touch of syrah from high-altitude sun-drenched vineyards in the Cariñena region, full of opulent plummy fruit and spice. Extended yeast-lees ageing and three months in barrel add complexity and texture to this elegant and fruity newcomer to our range.

This is not Rioja as you know it! Made with carbonic maceration, the same way as Beaujolais, and with no oak, it was hailed as ‘one of the wines of the 2026 Wine Champions tasting’ for its ‘pure violets and blueberries’ and ‘perfumed energy.’ A beautiful new arrival that announced itself in style.

Unoaked, crunchy red from Bierzo in the cooler north-west of Spain. Mencía is the grape and it makes a fruity, plump and joyful style of wine that is a delight drunk lightly chilled with pimientos de padrón, small green peppers found everywhere in Galicia (and increasingly here in the UK) fried until blisterd and charred dnd sprinkled with sea salt. Luna Beberide are pioneers in this corner of the country, farming sustainably, without herbicides or pesticides. The vines are planted on south-facing slopes at 700-metres above sea level for the freshness that altitude brings.

Juicy, peppery and wonderfully moreish, this vibrant red from leading Valencian grower Rafael Cambra punches well above its weight. Fresh, fruit-driven and made with a light touch, it offers exceptional value for lovers of Spain’s more elegant side.

A generously fruited, warm-hearted garnacha made by a young winemaking team of three brothers. They`ve delivered a delicious Spanish red packed with red fruits, black pepper and no small amount of charm. Without any oak influence, it shows off the purity and vibrancy of excellent Spanish garnacha.
