Variety

This Reserva is typically crafted from a blend of traditional Spanish grape varieties, often including Tempranillo, which is known for its balanced structure and aging potential.

Production

The wine undergoes a meticulous aging process in oak barrels, which imparts complexity and smoothness. The Reserva classification indicates extended aging, both in barrel and bottle, ensuring a refined and mature profile.
