Optimus 2008 consists of 49%Tempranillo, 17%Syrah, 17%Merlot and 17%Cab. These are, with the exception of Tempranillo, experimental varieties in the Rioja area, but allowed by the Rioja DO Institute.
Rioja vineyards manually selected grapes at their optimum ripeness. Subsequently, this wine, which is produced only in years of exceptional quality is aged in French oak barrels of Nevers and Alliers,medium roasted for 18 months.
This results in a well structured, elegant and intense wine with a pleasant taste. A red wine with great potential noted for its aromatic complexity and whose stay in the bottle will make it even more round. For its packaging and taste, Lagunilla Optimus 2008 is the perfect companion for all types of red meats and aged cheese. The jewel of Rioja.

Мощный аромат черных ягод и фруктов, много ванили. По цвету вино совсем молодое. Вкус полный, насыщенный, танины бархатные, повторяет аромат, отличная кислотность, вино цельное, сбалансированное. Похоже у вина потенциал лет 20.
