Rioja DOCG Imperial Gran Reserva Compania Vinicola del Norte de Espana 1970

The wine

This Rioja Gran Reserva is the property's crowning glory and only produced in the best years. It is aged in oak barrels for a long time and has an intense colour with dark fruit, balsamic and tobacco notes on the nose. We highly recommend keeping it for a few years to allow it to become more harmonious and delicate. With its silky tannins and persistent finish on its tertiary notes, you can be sure of some excellent food and wine pairings.
