La Granja Nuestra Señora de Remelluri
Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend
Blend of 85% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha and 5% Graciano, aged in oak for 20 months, deep Ruby with an elegant bouquet of berry fruits, cigar bo spice with earthy tones, a traditional Rioja. On the palate, the wine was silky smooth, elegant with layers of flavors, blackberry and sour cherry, tobacco, smoky cedar, vanilla spice, very well balanced with fine soft chewy tannins resembling a Nebbiolo, clean structure ending with a nice long chalky earthy character.
