A testament to the exceptional quality and tradition of Spanish winemaking. This wine embodies the essence of the Ribera del Duero region, known for its bold and robust reds.

Crafted by Bodegas Condado de Haza, the Gran Reserva Alenza 2018 is produced from meticulously selected Tempranillo grapes, the hallmark varietal of the region. The wine’s journey begins in the vineyards, where the grapes are handpicked at optimal ripeness, ensuring that only the best fruit is used. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 36 months in American oak barrels, followed by an additional period of bottle aging, allowing it to develop complexity and depth.

In the glass, this wine showcases a deep, ruby-red color with garnet highlights. On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, intertwined with notes of vanilla, spice, and a hint of tobacco. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a well-balanced acidity that leads to a long, elegant finish.

The 2018 Gran Reserva Alenza is perfect for special occasions and pairs beautifully with roasted meats, game, and mature cheeses. This wine is not just a drink but an experience, promising to elevate any gathering with its refined character and impeccable craftsmanship.
