2016 COTO DE IMAZ RIOJA RESERVA IS 20% OFF!!Wine Spectator 91 points, temporarily reduced from $24.99 to 19.98! "Supple and graceful tannins encase the cherry tart, violet and cola notes of this mocha-tinged red. Accents of loamy earth, anise and herb sail on through the finish." —Wine Spectator, 91 points "This tight, earthy Rioja has a classical profile, with gamey notes, edges of limestone acidity, and tannins darkening its red-currant flavors. Its youthful energy makes it a lovely match with grilled lamb." —Wine & Spirits, 91 points
Located in Oyón in La Rioja, El Coto de Rioja was founded in 1970 and has become one of the most recognized wine brands in Spain as the largest vineyard owner in Rioja. With four distinct estates throughout the sub-regions of Rioja Alta, Rioja Baja, and Rioja Alavesa, El Coto's 730 hectares focus El Coto's Reserva is one of our favorite Riojas- aromatic, impeccably balanced, and showing the enhanced flavors and tannic structure of 18 months in oak- yet with an underlying richness that pulses through the wine and drives it to the lovely, lengthy finish. Given that it's on a par with many Gran Reservas, this is a real buy at our usual price of $24.99- but when we saw a chance to do something on pricing we jumped at the opportunity! If you've never tried El Coto, now is the time! And if you've enjoyed it in the past, now's the time to stock up! We will hold our Wine of the Week sale price of just $19.98 as long as we can! Order online now, call 301-987-5933, or stop by the store today. |

PETE LOONEY PROVIDES LIVE MUSIC TONIGHT! 
The 2016 Coto de Imaz Rioja Reserva is the real thing- a super Rioja Riserva that knocked our socks off when we first tasted it a few months ago. Since then we have been selling this classic Rioja for $24.99, but now, while current supplies last, we are temporarily reducing the price to $19.98, a 20% discount! Same wine, same ratings, and plenty of life left- this will drink beautifully for a minimum of 5 more years, and likely for far longer. This is one of the best Rioja Reservas we've tasted in the last few years, and well worth the original price. But please don't delay- this opportunity will hold only while current supplies last!
primarily on the highest quality areas of Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa. The results are evident in the finished product: we rated the 2016 El Coto Reserva better than many of the Gran Reservas we have tasted recently, and easily better than any Rioja costing below $20! Wine Spectator, Wine & Spirits and James Suckling all rated the wine 91 points, and our expert Finewine.com tasters all agree. If you like Rioja, this is a great opportunity!
