El Coto Rioja Crianza is a vibrant red, dry Spanish wine crafted solely from Tempranillo grapes. It is aged for a minimum of 12 months in 225L American oak barrels and a further six months in bottle before release, enhancing its flavours and style. This wine offers a vibrant bouquet of red fruits, vanilla, and toast, leading to a silky palate with concentrated red berry fruit and sweet spice, culminating in a juicy, persistent finish. This versatile wine pairs wonderfully with roasted meats, mature cheeses, or rich pasta dishes. This wine is also vegan and vegetarian.

Vinification
The Tempranillo grapes were fermented in the winery at Oyón, in stainless-steel, temperature-controlled tanks. Once fermentation was complete, malolactic fermentation occurred. The wine was then aged for a minimum of 12 months in 225L American oak barrels and a further six months in bottle before release. This extra six months in bottle isn't required by law, however El Coto feel it enhances both the flavours and style of the wine.
Flavour profile
The wine offers a vibrant bouquet of red fruits, vanilla, and toast, leading to a silky palate. Concentrated red berry fruit flavours are beautifully balanced by sweet spice from oak ageing, culminating in a juicy and persistent finish.
Serving recommendation
Decant for 30 minutes and serve at 16-18°C to best enjoy its rich flavours.
