2017 Vina Arana Gran Reserva La Rioja Alta

£46.00

In March 2018, the best lots were selected to age in American oak barrels with an
average age of 4.5 years. The wine remained in barrel for three years, with traditional
racking from barrel to barrel every six months. The final blend was bottled in January
2022.

Tasting Note: Intense garnet colour, clean and bright, with a soft cherry-red hue on the rim. On the nose, it stands out for its high aromatic intensity, offering red fruits, raspberry, blackberry and redcurrants, intertwined with balsamic and spicy notes from its long barrel aging: Lebanese cedar, clove, nutmeg, vanilla, mocha and toasted caramel. On the palate, it is very well balanced, with a pleasant acidity that enhances its elegant freshness and smooth, delicate tannins that lengthen its finish. A long aftertaste, marked by the signature freshness of Viña Arana, promising a long and elegant evolution in the bottle.

Origin: Rioja, Spain

Blend: Tempranillo

La Rioja Alta

Five Riojan and Basque families founded the "Sociedad Vinícola de La Rioja Alta" in Haro's Station District. The first president was a woman: Doña Saturnina García Cid y Gárate. Monsieur Vigier, a Frenchman, was the House's first winemaker and the Reserva 1890 (predecessor of today's Gran Reserva 890) is the first wine he made.
