La Rioja Alta ‘Finca Martelo’ Rioja Reserva 2016/19

Description

La Rioja Alta are one of the biggest names in Rioja. They craft this Reserva only in perfect vintages, so you can expect excellence in every bottle. The Tempranillo vines on the Torre de Oña estate are over 60 years old – resulting in a wine with incredible concentration and complexity. Add two years of ageing in oak barrels, and you’ve got all the hedonistic qualities of delicious Rioja. Expect rich flavours of wild strawberry, cherry and redcurrant accompanied by notes of pastry, biscuit, vanilla, liquorice and pepper. Its silky tannins and long, elegant finish make it a fantastic partner for braised and roasted meats.
