"Based on 95% Tempranillo and 5% Graciano, raised in two-year old French and American oak barrels, the 2018 Rioja Reserva is a deep purple hue and offers a beautiful nose of ripe red and black berries, spicy oak, vanilla, and violets. Medium to full-bodied, round, and supple, it has some classic Rioja spice and complexity, ripe tannins, beautiful balance, and outstanding length."
