Best Value and Best of Tasting in the NY Times, we’ve got 5 cases of the La Rioja Alta Rioja Vina Ardanza Reserva Especial 2001 coming in on Wednesday.  To reserve yours, call us at (718) 797-9463.  We’re excited to try the wine the Times called “wonderfully complex yet mellow and balanced, with great finesse and flavors that linger.”  One of the benefits of Riojas is that they are released relatively late.  So the winery has done the aging for you under perfectly controlled conditions.  If you’ve ever considered starting a cellar or wondered about the advantages of proper aging conditions, a Rioja is a great wine to splurge on.

Special insider tip:  We’ll taste it on Saturday from 5-7 pm paired with something special from Fort Cheese!
