This prestigious publication recognizes the quality of the wines of the Navarra Denomination of Origin, with high scores claiming its prestige at a global level.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>May 13, 2025, Olite. - <\/strong><em>\"It is no secret that, in my opinion, Navarra is one of the most interesting wine regions in Spain and internationally. In Navarra we find some of the best garnachas in the world, magnificent blends and spectacular ros\u00e9s, the diversity of this region never ceases to amaze.\" <\/em>These are the words that open the latest report published by Tim Atkin MW's specialized wine press. These dossiers are a reference to know closely the most important wine regions of the world and on this occasion, Beth Willard, a taster of international prestige and collaborator of the medium, has once again put the focus on Navarra and signs its edition, after spending a week traveling through the region and tasting up to three hundred thirty-five wines from more than fifty producers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ros\u00e9s from the Navarra appellation are especially praised in the report. Willard notes that he has tasted more excellent ros\u00e9s than ever before, made by producers exploring innovative styles ranging from fresh wines fermented in stainless steel to more complex ones aged in amphorae, foudres or large barrels. This richness, ranging from pale, delicate ros\u00e9s to the more traditional vibrant \"strawberry-red\" versions, consolidates Navarra as a benchmark in ros\u00e9 winemaking. Thus, Navarra leads the new era of Spanish ros\u00e9s of great quality and complexity, yet to be discovered outside Spain. The expert also highlights with excitement the tendency of Navarra D.O. wineries to focus on single vineyards, specific varieties and sub-zones, an approach that results in unique and singular wines. According to Willard, this attention to terroir and vineyard, combined with innovative winemaking techniques, allows D.O. Navarra wines to express their true character.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Navarra D.O. wines with the highest scores in Tim Atkin's \"Navarra: Top 100\" report that make up the Podium are:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>White Wine of the Year: <strong>Hurac\u00e1n Daniela Cuv\u00e9e 2020 by Gonzalo Celayeta Wines.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ros\u00e9 Wine of the Year: <strong>Pinpilinpauxa de Ubeta 2023 from Ubeta Wines.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Red Wine of the Year: <strong>Golerga 2023 from Vi\u00f1a Zorzal Wines.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sweet Wine of the Year: <strong>Chivite Late Harvest Collection 125 2022.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>White Wine Discovery of the Year: <strong>Larrocha 2024 of Bodegas Amatria.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ros\u00e9 Wine Discovery of the Year: <strong>Alzania Ros\u00e9 2024 of Bodegas Alzania.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Red Wine Discovery of the Year: <strong>Meteluga 2023 of Ubeta Wines\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Value\" White Wine of the Year: <strong>25 Harvests Garnacha Blanca 2023 of Nekeas.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ros\u00e9 \"Value\" Wines of the Year: <strong>Ochoa Rosado de L\u00e1grima 2024 of Bodegas Ochoa and Guerinda Casalasierra 2024 of Bodegas M\u00e1ximo Abete.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Valor Red Wine of the Year: <strong>Le Naturel 2024 of Bodegas Aroa.<\/strong>Special mentions in Tim Atkin's \"Navarre: Top 100\" report go to. <strong>Concha Vecino of Bodegas Nekeas<\/strong>as \"Legend of enology\";
