Classic nose with savoury character over a sweet spices background with elegant cigar box notes. Quite mouth watering with a full body and chewy mid-palate.
Medium-deep garnet in colour, this Gran Reserva exudes the most desirable aromas of traditional Rioja - leather, sweet spices, desiccated cherries and ripe black fruits. The palate follows in this vein, with a rich core of sweet cherry and kirsch subsumed by savoury spices, leather and even a hint of coconut. The tannins are soft, melted into the fruit to give a cashmere texture and plump generosity through the mid palate. The finish is long and complex, offering sweet and savoury in equal measure.
