Description

2001 Gran Reserva 904, La Rioja Alta, Rioja, SpainAlluringly complex aromatics, balsamic with sweet spices, red fruits, dark chocolate. The palate is startlingly fresh, balanced between cherry red fruits, liquorice and cinnamon, with notes of dried herbs. 2001 was an exceptional vintage and this is proof: well structured, with distinct tannin and with many years ahead of it. 96 100 Sarah Jane Evans MW, Decanter. com (February 2020)

Drinking perfectly now

budding superstar of the vintage

Seed-inflected Meyer lemon

A stupendously good wine

with notes of melon and honey combining with a creamy mouthfeel and finish

Packaged in a beautiful limited-edition red-and-gold droplet bottle including a gift box

now show a consistency of style and quality that perhaps was not entirely there a few years ago

perfumed and charming
