Bideona’s Cuvée Laguardia 2020 hails from the prestigious Rioja DO, one of Spain’s most celebrated wine regions. Crafted primarily from Tempranillo, the flagship grape of Rioja, this red wine epitomises the elegance and balance that the region is known for. The 2020 vintage was marked by favourable growing conditions, allowing for even ripening and a good concentration of fruit, while retaining the freshness that characterises fine Rioja. While the vinification details are not specified, Bideona is known for its contemporary approach, blending traditional ageing methods – often in oak – with a focus on purity of fruit and minimal intervention, offering a style that is vibrant yet complex.
The Rioja region, nestled in northern Spain, benefits from a unique convergence of climates: Atlantic influence brings freshness and finesse, whilst Mediterranean warmth ensures ripeness and depth in the grapes. The soils of Rioja Alavesa, where Laguardia is located, are predominantly limestone and clay, imparting minerality and supporting excellent structure in the wines. Rioja’s winemaking heritage dates back centuries, blending Moorish and monastic traditions, with a reputation for producing some of the world’s most age-worthy and versatile reds.
This wine’s supple tannins, lively acidity, and notes of dark berries, violets, and gentle oak make it wonderfully adaptable at the table. It pairs beautifully with classic Spanish dishes like slow-cooked lamb shoulder or chuletillas al sarmiento (lamb chops grilled over vine cuttings). Its versatility also shines when matched with tapas: think grilled chorizo, jamón ibérico, Manchego cheese, or earthy wild mushroom risotto. For international pairings, consider roast duck or a rich, herbed ratatouille.
To fully appreciate the subtlety and layered aromas of the Bideona Cuvée Laguardia 2020, serve it at 16-18°C. Decanting for an hour before serving can help open up its bouquet and soften the structure, particularly as it is still relatively youthful. This wine will reward careful cellaring over several years, but it already displays charming vibrancy and poise for immediate enjoyment.
