About this wine

Gran Reserva 904 2015 is a blend of about 90% Tempranillo from 40-plus-year-old vineyards in Briñas, Labastida and Villalba with 10% Graciano from the Montecillo vineyard. The wine fermented in stainless steel with full malolactic before spending over four years in American oak barrels crafted in-house, followed by around five years of bottle ageing. The result is a highly perfumed Rioja with plums, mulberries and red berries layered with mushroom, caramel, sweet tobacco and balsamic notes. On the palate it is medium-bodied, silky and incredibly precise, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity and a very long, graceful, savoury-sweet finish.
