Tasting Notes: Established in 1870, these folks have been pioneers in bringing the best of Spain to America. Sourcing older vines helps yield concentrated flavor. Very regimented fermentation combines the best of old world and new world techniques (stainless and concrete tanks) The magic happens in the aging to achieve the Reserva status. Twenty-four months in mainly French oak is followed by 24 months of bottle aging. Beautiful ruby coloring in the glass leads to red fruit notes. Rich and elegant, with touches of expresso and vanilla on the finish. Incredible value for a wine of the pedigree.
