The 2015 Reserva had just been bottled, and it should be released around January 2019 in the international market and in Spain (as Crianza) in October 2018. This was a very long harvest (similar to 2016). They started at the end of August with the Cava, and they finished at the end of October with very healthy grapes, good yields and very good quality. The wine shows very good ripeness but without any excess. It has incipient complexity, still young and undeveloped but with very good balance between power and elegance, with fine-grained tannins and integrated acidity. This has to be one of the best recent vintages of this popular bottling. There are around one million bottles of it.

This red offers black cherry and plum flavors, backed by tobacco and cocoa notes. Bright, citrusy acidity keeps this lively, while firm tannins impart focus. A bit angular, but expressive. Drink now through 2027. 80,000 cases made, 11,000 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Rioja Select to Add
