Los Companeros is a sturdy and versatile, and while there are many appetizing matches, it may prove a challenge to find a better partner for a nice rib-eye on the barbecue.
This blend of 80% Shiraz, 20% Tempranillo is reminiscent of a French or Spanish table wine (with more sunshine, perhaps). Little to no oak influence lets the bright plums and red fruits, leather, dried herbs, spices and florals, and stony minerality shine through. Acidity on the palate is a touch biting, but overall the aromas of the nose carry on into flavors, supported by spicy tannins. Silky in texture, with fruit purity and a lovely savoriness, this should be plonked on the dinner table beside a heaping bowl of paella. Editors' Choice.
This has a mellow, blueberry, plum and old-wood spice style that really beckons for the barbecue and casual drinking. The palate is very smooth, succulent and easy with a fresh, glossy, red-fruit core.
