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
Intense, deep and complex aromas of ripe red fruits, combined with barrel-aged aromas of coffee, vanilla and baking spice. The palate is balanced and elegant with a high level of freshness and a long, pleasant 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.
