About the wine
A genius Rioja (not) Reserva that out-Reservas them all
-
Carlos has gone full Santa’s workshop – tracking down tiny parcels of premium Rioja (we’re talking Reserva and Gran Reserva quality) and blending them into one utterly delicious, velvety red just for you.
-
Even though we can’t call it a Reserva (rules… bah humbug!), it’s got everything you adore in a proper aged Rioja – plush black-cherry fruit, cedar, clove spice and that earthy complexity from careful barrel ageing.
-
Made to take centre stage come roast-and-trimmings time – this is your showpiece red for roast meats, rich potatoes, richer gravy and the best company around.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Carlos Rodriguez
-
Carlos is a highly-respected consultant oenologist, which means he travels all over Spain making other people’s wines taste delicious. He always dreamed that he could start his own winery and make wines with his name on the bottle but he was never able to raise the funds, and he used to joke that he’d need to take a gun to a bank to get the cash he needed!
-
That all changed in 2010, when someone forwarded our email to Carlos. We were looking for young, talented, Spanish winemakers to fulfill their potential and make wines for us. So he sent us some samples and we loved them so much, we asked him to hop on the next plane to come see us. At first, he thought he was joining a sect when he heard about Angels and Archangels, but the more he heard, the more he liked. And the rest is history…
-
Carlos is a Naked legend, former Winemaker of the Year, and loved by his Angels. With his insider knowledge from years spent on the road, and your backing behind him, he’s now able to snaffle up the best parcels in Spain to make top-class Riojas and Spanish wines just for you.
