At Arzuaga, we believe that all fathers deserve a toast on the holiday in their honour, so that’s why we thought what better way to celebrate 19th March than with one of our DO Ribera del Duero wines.
Since we couldn’t just recommend one wine for such an important day, we suggest having a look at the wide range we offer at Arzuaga through this post and on our website www.arzuaganavarro.com. Our classic reds will be a safe bet for a family meal, but other varieties made at our winery, such as Rosae Arzuaga, can also make a very special gift.
For example, Arzuaga Crianza comes from the La Maquinilla vineyard, the oldest one on the La Planta estate, and its 16 months’ ageing in French and American oak barrels make it a smooth, subtle and very elegant wine. Arzuaga Reserva, on the other hand, is a more structured wine that has been barrel aged for 26 months. With a more serious character, it stands out for its toasted and smoky notes. Both of these wines are ideal for accompanying dishes with red met, white meat or large game. However, they also pair perfectly with oily fish and mild cheeses.
Since a father is unique and has no equal, we believe this is the best opportunity for enjoying our Pago Florentino wine, which has become an exclusive gem from our winery as it’s one of the few single-estate wines in Spain today. The quality of the terroir it comes from gives this 100% Tempranillo red wine a long finish that perfectly blends varied nuances of black fruits, spices and toasted notes. Moreover, it recently received the highest score from the International Wine & Spirit Competition.
Lastly, but by no means least, we recommend our Rosae Arzuaga. This is a rosé wine, fresher than the others, with fruity touches and that leaves a flavoursome sensation on the palate.
We know that whatever you choose to toast with or to give your father on 19th March, he’ll be left wanting more. So, you’ll be able to celebrate again on any other day, because he deserves it!
