Natalie's Score: 90/100

From Bodegas Franco-Españolas, Bordón Gran Reserva 2013 is a dry, full-bodied and intense Tempranillo-driven red wine blend with Garnacha and Mazuelo added to the mix. This gran reserva is a classic Rioja with dark plum, cherry, blueberry, savoury herb, smoky and spicy flavours rich, fresh and long on the palate. Do decant it an hour or two prior to pouring it with a roast porchetta or game dishes. Drink or cellar to 2028.

Food pairings: roast pork, grilled lamb chops, veal cutlets.
