Rioja Bordon Tempranillo Reserva 2016
Made from Tempranillo, Red Garnacha, and Mazuelo from vineyards in the 3 sub-areas in Rioja with different soil types: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa, and Rioja Oriental, northward-facing in the foothills of the Sierra de la Demanda. The wine is aged in medium-roasted white American (Ohio) and French oak barrels for 18 months, with decanting every 6 months to facilitate the natural filtering process. It then stays in the bottle for refinement.
Ripe cherry in colour with ruby-red hues and a medium-high depth. On the nose, fairly intense aromas and elegant classicism, ripe red fruit, jam, toffee, chocolate and cocoa, aromatic herbs, cedar and spices. In the mouth, well-structured, tasty, and has good balance and a good fruity sensation. Broad and elegant through the mouth. A ripe, deep finish. High-quality aromatic aftertaste.
