Description

Deep ruby with garnet reflections. Blackberry, dark cherry and plum mingle with vanilla, cocoa and sweet spice, plus hints of dried herbs and graphite. The palate is silky and structured, with fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity, leading to a long finish of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and liquorice.

Finca Valpiedra is a single estate on a bend of the river Ebro in Rioja Alta, owned by the Martínez Bujanda family and a member of the Grandes Pagos de España. This Tempranillo-based Reserva is aged in oak and bottle before release.

Serve with roast lamb, braised beef cheeks or aged hard cheeses.
