Kalamity (a name given that indirectly relates to Oxers love of Shakespeare) shows an array of aromas from dark berries to animal notes to violets and spice. On the palate, the flavours are incredibly bold and take you to a place you never knew existed. A wine with enormous length and minerality. Only 1,200 bottles made. Robin Kick MW says "Oxer makes truly distinctive wines in the heart of the Basque Country. Kalamity is a bit of a "cult" Rioja, combining only the best fruit from both Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa from truly old vines that are around 100-120 years in age. His goal is to really take the best from both of Rioja's top sub-regions and combine it into one soulful experience. An impressive wine that will age beautifully."
