This brand is already a great reference for classic Rioja reds that improve with age. Furthermore, this 2010 vintage is considered one of the best of the 21st century. This is a unique wine, where selection has been a constant in its production, from the bunches of grapes to the barrels used for the final blend. A Reserva full of intense and deep notes and with a long life in the bottle. This is the first vintage of the Gran Reserva 890 to be made since the legendary 2005. It is a wine legend.
It stands out for its garnet red colour, medium layer and incipient iodine colour on the rim of the glass. The nose features typical notes of Rioja classicism: cherry jam, black plum compote, tobacco leaf, cinnamon, vanilla, pepper and chocolate powder. The elegance of its tannins and its soft freshness give this wine an elegant and pleasant palate. Classic Rioja bouquet, broad, complex, round and with an elegant finish. A Gran Reserva 890 with a long life ahead.
