La Rioja Alta, Vina Ardanza Reserva 2015

“La Rioja Alta is one of the most respected Rioja producers and one of my favourites.” - Jancis Robinson
The legend began when five families joined together to share their passion for wine and set up the estate in 1890. Today, the winery is widely considered as one of the finest estates in the region, producing classic and traditional Riojas. These wines are marked by a long aging in used American oak barrels, following the most strict Riojan tradition and are released only when they are ready to drink.

Varietal: Tempranillo, Garnacha

“A rich nose of raspberry, crushed strawberry, blueberry, coconut, cedar and sweet spice. It’s medium-to full-bodied with fine tannins and fresh acidity. Creamy, balanced and layered with vibrant, spicy character. Long and polished.”
- James Suckling
