Another ‘nearly’ year with many top proucers making excellent wines, including El Coto, Faustino, Martínez Bujanda, Salceda, and Olarra. Faustino, Salceda and López Heredia each turned out more than 20% of Gran Reserva wines and the overall average was 15%. The best of these wines are drinking at their peak now.
