Even if this January 2023 is not the coldest month we have ever known, we have to admit that it is always pleasant to be in the warmth, whether in front of a fireplace or near the oven preparing a meal. Here is a selection of great reds to warm up the January evenings from Spain to France and Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rioja Alavesa is full of pearls, including this one from the Ebro Valley, the majestic river Ebro being the largest in Spain and providing good irrigation for the vines. The nose is rich, with hints of red cherry, dried mauve flowers and sweet spices, which are found on the palate along with woody, cocoa, prune, caramel and undergrowth aromas; it is fresh and the tannins are smooth and melted. It will magnify a grilled beef fillet with wild mushrooms, a good game with grilled vegetables or a Manchego. Astonishing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
