Torre de Oña Finca San Martín Crianza 2020 Bottle size: 750ml

‘There was no single parcel Finca Martelo made in 2020, so all of the grapes from Torre de Oña's 48-hectare estate in Páganos, were used to make this varietal Tempranillo. Carrying its 14.5% alcohol lightly, it has subtle American and 40% French oak, flavours of summer berries and orange zest and appealing freshness for a hot vintage wine. 2024-28’ – Tim Atkin MW, Rioja Special Report 2024, 91/100

‘A nicely simple Rioja with subtle spices, berries, red plums and some oranges. Spicy and medium-bodied on the palate with medium acidity, round, soft tannins and a creamy, medium-long finish. Very approachable.’ – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, 91/100

‘The young and fruit-driven 2020 Finca San Martín is pure Tempranillo fermented in stainless steel and matured in new American (60%) and French (40%) oak barrels for 16 months. It's creamy and spicy, with ripe berry fruit, clean and modern, approachable and powerful, but it also has good freshness and acidity.’ – Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, 91/100

‘Brilliant cherry red colour with a medium layer and ruby ​​rim. On the nose it stands out for its freshness and intensity of fruit with hints of wild strawberries, raspberries and cranberries. These aromas of red fruits are accompanied by spicy notes of vanilla, caramel, cedar and liquorice. On the palate it is a balanced wine with a lively entrance and a pleasant and balanced mid-palate, ending in an aftertaste where the fruity expression and balsamic notes stand out.’ – Winemaker
