Monteleiva Gran Reserva Rioja 2010

DOC Rioja

Already 12 years in bottle! Imagine how much complexity this wine can represent now. Would you drink it directly or be able to resist a couple of more years before opening it? Tough decision…

Tasting notes
Smoky, toasty oak sits atop hard spice, earth, floral berry and vanilla aromas on a nose that’s complex and true to Rioja gran Reserva. A tight-wire palate is firm and braced by racy acidity combined with ripe, hefty fruit. Cherry, plum and currant flavors are savoury and saucy, while this closes with power and tension, indicating that this wine is perfect for aging.
