2016 La Rioja Alta Vina Ardanza Reserva

Product description

Intense garnet red color, with a clean edge. The nose stands out for its great aromatic intensity, with spicy and balsamic notes of liquorice, cloves, nutmeg and black pepper, enveloping a subtle memory of ripe red fruits: liqueur cherry and raspberry jam. Its palate is very balanced, fresh, with a wide range of flavors and soft, round tannins, which give way to a spicy and balsamic final aftertaste. A Viña Ardanza in its fullness and with a long life ahead.

The Tempranillo (80%) comes from our La Cuesta and Montecillo vineyards, over 30 years old and with predominantly clay-calcareous soils, in Fuenmayor and Cenicero. The Garnacha variety grapes (20%) come from La Pedriza in Tudelilla, a 70-hectare vineyard located in the Rioja Oriental at an altitude of 550 m, with deep pebble soils and unbeatable conditions for the cultivation of this variety.

Food Pairings: Main dishes, all types of meats and stews and desserts with chocolate coverage. Ideal as an after-dinner glass.
