ABV 13.5%
The Charge evokes the criss-crossing of Rioja by medieval knights and pilgrims on the Santiago trail.
Working with the talented Rodolfo Bastida of Bodegas Ramon Bilbao in Haro, Rioja Alta, the winemakers have crafted a wine with excellent red berry and spicy fruit with refreshing acidity balanced by fine vanilla flavours from oak maturation. The Charge red is made from grapes from all over the Rioja region - 70% Tempranillo, 25% Garnacha and 5% of the enigmatic Graciano. 7 different vineyard blocks were used and the wine was aged for an average 9 months in a variety of French and Amercian oak barrels.
