From the Rioja Alta and Rioja of Alava, the Tempranillo grapes used in making this wine come from 50 year-old vineyards situated at approximately 500 meters above sea level and characterized by predominately loamy, calcium-rich soils. The Garnacha grapes used in making this wine originates from the lower Rioja region and vineyards of at least 60 years, and sandy, rocky alluvial soils.
This wine is aged from 18 months in American and French oak, decanted periodically in the cellar, and given and additional 24 months to refine in the bottle while awaiting release from the cellar.
This reserva wine is characterized by its cherry colors with hints of terra cotta and a clean, bright medium body. The bouquet offers intense aromas with hints of balsam and ripe fruit. The wine enters the mouth smoothly and cleanly, and finishes freshly and elegantly, with well developed tannins.
