This is an exceptional Reserva made exclusively from the Tempranillo grape variety from the Rioja Alta vineyards. The red wine starts with a deep dark color followed by a gorgeous fragrance of red fruits, cedar, and a hints of dry herbs. The wine is flavorful with layers of dried sour cherries, earthy, ripe plums and some spices. The palate is fine and supple, yet with distinct firmness. Thanks to the quality aging process, the wine shows exquisite finesse. This superb, beautiful Reserva, with excellent balance and length, is rated 93 points by Wine Advocate.
