La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 890 is a flagship Rioja wine, showcasing the pinnacle of traditional winemaking. Crafted primarily from Tempranillo, with a touch of Graciano and Mazuelo, it’s aged for over six years in oak barrels and bottles. This wine is exceptionally complex, with layers of red fruit, spice, tobacco, and leather, offering a long, refined finish and remarkable ageing potential. Ideal for special occasions, it pairs beautifully with rich meats and aged cheeses.

 

“A fragrant nose of blackberries, plums, earth, dried flowers, leather, cloves, sweet tobacco and cigar box. Full-bodied with seamless tannins and fresh acidity. Balanced and layered with great tension. Elegant, with a velvety texture and a long finish. Such length and beauty now with so much age. Drink or hold.” 97 points James Suckling
