Tasting Notes
A deep cherry-red appearance with powerful aromas of red fruits and spice on the nose. Quite full bodied with good structure and balance, the ripe red fruit flavours are underscored with a hint of toast from the oak ageing. The finish is harmonious and mellow, with sweet tannins and some spicy notes.
The Producer
This brand new bodega cooperative lies just outside the town of Autol in sub-region Rioja Baja, and boasts 1200 hectares of owned vineyards. All wines are estate bottled and made from vines grown on the estate. Rioja Baja (compared to Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa) yields Tempranillo grapes of a different character that deliver greater concentrationj and deeper colour. Belying its contemporary look this winery has a proud heritage stretching back well over one hundred years. Founder, Marquis of Reinosa, was a key player in the development of Rioja wine during the second half of the 19th century, shaping the industry for what it has become today. Today, Bodegas Marques de Reinosa marries latest technology with heritage to produce modern style red, white and rose Rioja wines which are sold throughout Spain and in international markets across the world.
Vinification
Fermentation at 26C using selected yeasts. After 16 days maceration, the wine is moved to American oak barrels for 3 months ageing before a further 4 months ageing in bottle.
