This glorious Rioja was destined for Reserva quality, aged a year in barrel and then bottled. But upon tasting, winemaker Jean-Marc Sauboua decided it could be tucked away a little longer.
It ended up being considerably longer than intended, but all's well that ends well, because 10 years later it's proved to be absolutely stunning – a silky, velvety luxury wine. A great choice with lamb.
This Rioja Reserva always impresses us with its seductive, rich flavours and now, with six years' age, it's showing its complexity. It’s all hand picked Tempranillo from a special Alavesa vineyard – luscious, layered berry fruit and oaky length.
