Description
La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 890 2010
La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 890 has a ruby red with an incipient brick rim. It has an intense and classic aroma with notes of cured leather, stewed plums and raisins with hints of tobacco, sweet spices, vanilla and dark chocolate. The mouthfeel is elegant, mature and complex with an outstanding structure and well-balanced acidity with silky tannins. Its classic Rioja bouquet stands out big, complex and round, with elegant finish. A Gran Reserva 890 with a magnificent present and a promising future.
