Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza Reserva 2019

Viña Ardanza Reserva is not only one of the best wines from Rioja and Spain, it is also an iconic wine internationally. With each harvest, it has managed to win over both critics and the public. Its now classic blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha is pure balance and silkiness. In the words of its creator, winemaker Julio Sáenz, “An exceptional harvest, one of the best in our history, to end an extraordinary decade of Viña Ardanza”.

Intense cherry red colour, with a garnet tone on the rim of the glass. With great aromatic power, initially with a fruity character (cherry, blackcurrant, red plum) and then giving way to balsamic and spicy notes (pepper, liquorice, clove, vanilla, toasted caramel and nutmeg). On the palate it is fresh and balanced, with fine, silky tannins. A broad aftertaste that combines red fruits and spices with a fresh, long character.
