Reserva

Aged Rioja with intensity and finesse, this is a blend of 82% Tempranillo, 10% Viura, 6% Graciano and 2% Garnacha, sourced from parcels in the foothills of the Sierra Cantabria, mostly in Rioja Alavesa, with vines averaging 60 years of age – and only the 'shoulders' of the bunches are used for this wine. The oak is present – following fermentation of the destemmed fruit in stainless steel and concrete tanks of varying shapes and capacities, the wine is matured for 25 months in 225L oak barrels – but it's high-quality, bringing chocolatey and savoury notes with a nice graphite lift. There's intensity and concentration, but the acidity drives this wine and the fruit and tannins are ripe. A modern, polished wine with ageing potential.
