Spain Bodega Contador

Our committee's review

Nestled in the foothills of the town of San Vicente de Sonsierra, Bodega Contador is a true icon. Benjamin Romeo, the modern visionary with an uncompromising style and biodynamic viticulture principles, has brought his estate to the top of the world wine scene. It is said that he makes "silk wines" in reference to the extreme softness of tannins and precision that accompany each of his wines.

Repeatedly awarded the highest rating of 100/100 by Robert Parker, Contador joins Vega Sicilia and Pingus in the exclusive club of Spanish icons.

Enjoy these 2 exceptional wines, which are perfect illustrations of the style of the estate and rated 98/100 and 93/100 by Robert Parker. Unique and unmatched bottles, a must-have for sure! 

A pure tempranillo wine, the 2018 Red Rioja Cueva del Contador reflects all the style and delicacy of the estate. A bottle that combines generosity and freshness with a rather taut palate and smoot tannins. A very nice approach to the Rioja and its special grape variety. Rated 93/100 by Robert Parker. 

The 2018 Red Rioja Contador is at the beginning of its aging process, and has a beautiful freshness and balance for its young age. The tannins are delicate, the palate is bursting with flavors of black fruits and spices and has a slightly chalky finish. The aging in barrels (for 20 months in new barrels) does not hinder the wine's airy character and accompanies its generosity and power with ease. A vintage of great success, in a classic style, which will be around for a long time to come! Rated 98/100 by Parker.

One of Spain's most prestigious signatures on a par with the world's greatest labels, at -15%!
