Gran Reserva

10% Graciano is added to the blend of the 2011 – a vintage that winemaker Alejandro López describes as ‘although early, potentially one of the best in decades’. This gran reserva shows better integration of oak and fruit. Smoky, slightly meaty notes are joined by coffee, liquorice, dark chocolate and red berry fruits, and a vein of acidity that’s keeping this wine going strong. The classic, rustic style went very well with the food served on the night, and is drinking very well now. Alternatively, keep for another five years.
