Reserva
When choosing to buy a Rioja wine, the four classifications of each Rioja will be clearly labeled on the bottle. This Reserva is only made during years with exceptional grapes. A Reserva must be aged a minimum of 3 years, with at least one year in oak and the rest in the bottle.
Tasting Notes
Bright red cherry color. Ripe red fruit aromas combined with fine nuances from oak barrel ageing: spices, coffee, vanilla. Balanced and elegant, with a high level of freshness. Long, deep finish.
Vineyards
From selected vineyards in several areas in Elciego (Rioja Alavesa). The climate is Continental Mediterranean, with a strong Atlantic influence. After an early April frost, the vineyard benefitted from a hot, dry summer and yielded a high-quality harvest – defined by the Rioja Regulatory Council as Very Good. Organically-poor clay/limestone soils, with vines that average 25 years old.
Winemaking
Aged for 24 months in (50% French 50% American) barrels, with an additional 12 months in the bottle.
