"An immediate pleasure for this true Rioja reference!"

"With a small amount of Graciano to liven up the Tempranillo, the 2019 Rioja Reserva is a classic, full-bodied wine from a selection of Reserva-specific vineyards, fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for 18 months in French rather than American oak barrels. It's bursting with black cherry, plum and black licorice, with spicy wood notes on the long finish. Drink between 2029 and 2039." (Jeb Dunnuck 2025)

About the wine:

Aromas of cedar and exotic spices on a rich core of dark berries with an earthy touch. The wine has good acidity, offering a firm structure with fresh, crisp fruit, and finishing with a lingering mineral note. For drinking or cellaring.
