Baron de Ley Club Privado Reserva Rioja

The Baron de Ley winery was founded by a prestigious group of Rioja professionals in 1985. They were quite unique in their approach as they modelled the winery on a Medoc chateaux, which was a pioneering move at that time for producers in the Denominacion de Origen Calificada Rioja. This wine is aged in new oak casks for 20 months prior to resting in the bottle for 2 years before release. It has definite claret qualities; the nose is layered with ripe cherry, toasty oak and a touch of cigar box. Lively, ripe, red fruit with dried tobacco and nutty vanilla overtones, round tannins with an expressive woody finish. Rioja wine can be excellent value for money and has terrific cellaring potential. Buy this wine if you like: Well rounded reds, with soft fruit and toasty character, easy drinking for upfront pleasure.

Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and gently cook the sliced onions and crushed garlic until soft. Add all of the remaining ingredients, except the chickpeas, along with a little water, cover and bring to the boil. Simmer for 30 minutes. At this stage, the sauce can be liquidising using a hand-held immersion blender or in a food processor or it can be served chunky. Add the chickpeas and spinich to the pan, bring back to the boil and simmer for a couple of minutes, untilt the spinich is wilted and the chickpeas heated through.
