Bold & rich classic Rioja Reserva. "A highly intense and deep core of dark cherry with a pinkish edge. Bright and clean. Complex nose, with good intensity. Over a background of ripe fruit, it shows notes of cocoa, wild fruit (dark cherries), and a touch of mint. As it stays in the glass, mineral and balsamic notes begin to arise. The wood is well integrated. Full of flavour on the fore palate with a base of wild ripe berries as the principal sensation, similar to a mix of jam, candy and marinated plums. Pleasant tannins and a silky smooth finish. 90% Tempranillo and 10% Garnacha and Graciano from 40+ year old vines. Steel ferment before 18 months aging in medium toasted 70% American & 30% French oak. Rests in bottle at least 20 months before release. Unfiltered wine, recommend decanting at least an hour before serving.
