Description
Discover the refined allure of Viña Real Gran Reserva Rioja, a standout red from Spain's celebrated Rioja Alavesa area. Crafted by the respected CVNE winery, this expression draws from their dedicated vineyards, merging 95% Tempranillo with 5% Graciano to capture the essence of traditional Rioja character—seamless integration of vibrant fruit, solid framework, and impressive longevity.
Its hue catches the eye with a rich maroon depth accented by subtle cherry tones, signaling depth and readiness. On the nose, expect a sophisticated intensity: spices mingle with hints of cocoa, vanilla, and polished wood, trailing into echoes of fully ripened fruit. This sets the stage for an engaging sensory journey.
In the mouth, it spreads generously, backed by impressive poise and promise. Firm yet refined tannins lend nobility, weaving a multifaceted tapestry that lingers extensively. Full in presence, it balances bold strength with graceful subtlety, ensuring every sip reveals layers of harmony.
The aftermath endures, harmonious and memorable, inviting reflection on its intricate flavors. Critics have taken note: James Suckling bestowed 95 points, praising the "attractive nose of dark cherries, dill, thyme, coconut, and chocolate." Wine Enthusiast echoed with another 95, noting its "elegant and intense" nature.
At 13.50% ABV in a standard 750 ml bottle, this dry-style Rioja red stands ready for those seeking a profound Spanish wine experience. Priced at $67.49, Viña Real Gran Reserva Rioja delivers true regional authenticity, perfect for collectors or anyone craving a wine of distinction.
