Known by critics as the main representative of the modern Rioja style, Eguren Ugarte aims to produce a riper, richer wine with Cincuenta, creating a beautiful Spanish red with a bright fruit profile. 100% Tempranillo from the famed region of Rioja Alta with intense aromas of dark red fruits and toasted spice. 14 months in French and American oak have rounded out the tannins. This big wine for a little price can age another five years. 92 Points from James Suckling, this full-bodied and versatile Rioja pairs with tons of food. A perfect cellar defender, family and friends would never guess this bottle cost under $15.
"An unassuming nose of plums, cherries, earth and sweet spices. Medium-bodied with assertive, chalky tannins and bright acidity. Lively and elegant with a silky texture and lots of cherry character on the palate. Succulent fruit lingers through the long, fruit-oriented finish. Drink or hold." James Suckling, 92 Points
