Tasting Note

It stands out for its medium garnet red colour, with an incipient iodine tinge on the rim of the glass. The nose reveals the characteristic notes of Rioja classicism: cherry jam, black plum compote, tobacco leaf, cinnamon, vanilla, pepper and chocolate powder. The refinement of its tannins and its gentle freshness lend this wine an elegant and pleasant mouthfeel. Classic Rioja bouquet, broad, complex, round and with an elegant finish. This Gran Reserva 890 has a long life ahead of it.

Product Notes

La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 890 wine is a truly exceptional wine that showcases the best of Spain's Rioja region. Made from a blend of Tempranillo, Graciano, and Mazuelo grapes, this wine is aged for an impressive 6 years in oak barrels before bottling. The result is a rich and complex wine with layers of flavors including ripe red fruits, vanilla, spice, and tobacco. The texture is silky smooth with well-integrated tannins, and the finish is long and lingering. This wine is a perfect choice for special occasions or for anyone looking to experience the pinnacle of Rioja winemaking.
