As a Reserva, this wine has been aged for a minimum of three years, including at least one year in oak, developing the complex layers of flavour that define classic Rioja. The estate's commitment to low yields and meticulous vineyard management results in Tempranillo of outstanding quality, combining the variety's characteristic red fruit with the savoury complexity imparted by careful oak ageing and extended bottle maturation.
