Lot 93

2004 Rioja Tempranillo

Cameron Hughes Lot 93 is a stunning 2004 Tempranillo that beautifully captures the essence of Rioja. This expressive red wine showcases a medium-bodied profile, offering a delightful balance of richness and vibrancy. Its acidity is bright and refreshing, enhancing the wine's character while allowing the luscious fruit flavors to shine through. Expect prominent notes of blackberry and plum, complemented by subtle hints of spice and earthy undertones that are characteristic of the Rioja region. The tannins are notably firm yet approachable, providing structure and depth that contribute to a well-rounded mouthfeel. This delightfully dry wine is perfect for enjoying now, but it also has the potential to develop further complexity with age. Cameron Hughes Lot 93 is a wonderful example of how Tempranillo reflects its terroir, making it a remarkable addition to any wine lover's collection.

Spain

While its reputation as a serious wine destination was eclipsed by France and Italy for many years, ignoring Spain today means missing out on some of the world's most exciting wines. Enjoying hundreds of miles of sun-kissed coastline and rocky interiors at higher elevations, Spain provides an ideal location for vineyards. Whether it is sparkling cavas from Catalonia, crisp Verdejos from Rueda, sublime Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero or inky Monastrells from Valencia, Spain has many wine styles to explore, all expressing the country's wildly unique terroir.
