    2017 La Rioja Alta "Vina Ardanza" Reserva (Rioja, SP) 5R

    5R

    Medium-bodied wines with more structure and a mouth-feel similar to whole milk

    2017 La Rioja Alta "Vina Ardanza" Reserva (Rioja, SP) 5R

    La Rioja Alta has been setting the quality standard in their famed region since their founding in 1890. Holding the wine back for an average of nine years adds layers of complexity and structure. A delightful nose of dark cherries and black pepper leads into a sip of toasty spices and silky tannins. Pair with grilled meats and hearty Mediterranean fair and watch as this bottle evolves.

    About The Producer

    La Rioja Alta

    La Rioja Alta stands out as a leading winery in the Rioja area, established in 1890 by a group of five families from Rioja and the Basque Country. It has gained acclaim for its traditional, spicy Gran Reserva red wines, which are renowned for their ability to mature elegantly over numerous years. The winery is named after the Rioja Alta (Upper Rioja) subregion, where much of its activity is centered.
