Description

Viña Bujanda Reserva, made of 100% Tempranillo, comes from Rioja Alta and Alavesa areas. The wine is then fermented in stainless steel tanks for 12 days and aged in oak for 24 months in American (70%) and French (30%) oak, and further aged in bottle for 18 months before it is released and ready to enjoy.

The resulting wine is deep purple with garnet highlights. The nose is elegant with hints of cigar box and mature blackberry, plum and sloes.  The palate is full-bodied and round, and the finish is long and refined and intensely complex - plum, cacao and mocha notes emerge, alluding to the excellent ageing potential. 

The wine will pair exceptionally well with roast meat, game and mature cheeses.

Rioja

Rioja, located in northern Spain, is one of the country’s most prestigious and renowned wine regions. The region benefits from a diverse climate with influences from both the Mediterranean and Atlantic, contributing to its varied wine styles.
Famous for its reds, primarily made from Tempranillo, which produce wines known for their depth, rich fruit flavours, and well-integrated oak characteristics, the region also produces notable blends incorporating Garnacha and Graciano. Rioja’s whites, including those from Viura and Malvasía, are celebrated for their freshness, aromatic complexity, and balanced acidity. Historically, Rioja has a winemaking tradition dating back to Roman times. The region gained prominence in the 19th century with the influence of French winemaking techniques, and today it is recognised for its commitment to both traditional and modern practices. Rioja's classification system, including Crianza, Reserva, and Gran Reserva, reflects its dedication to quality and aging potential, making it a benchmark for Spanish wine.
