Reserva

Deeply coloured, with aromas of light cedar, herbs and red fruits. In the mouth the wine is very powerful, piquant, full-bodied, with citrus acidity and strong tannin. As the years pass, the proportion of Graciano in Culmen increases (here up to 13%), underscoring the dark spiciness on the palate. 2019 was an excellent year in Rioja, reflected in the intensity of the wine. As such it's still too young to give its full expression, hence the lower score at present. The malolactic fermentation and ageing were in the same new French oak: 22 months in all, followed by 12 months in bottle before release.
