2020 La Rioja Alta Vina Ardanza Reserva

Spain | Tempranillo

$ 43.99 $ 53.00

A beautifully crafted Rioja Reserva from one of Spain's most respected wineries, La Rioja Alta. This classic blend of 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha is aged for up to three years in American oak barrels, developing exceptional depth and complexity. Elegant aromas of ripe cherry, wild strawberry, cedar, vanilla, and warm baking spices lead to a rich, beautifully balanced palate with red berries, cocoa, subtle tobacco, and hints of toasted oak. Medium to full-bodied, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, refined finish. A wonderful example of traditional Rioja, offering impressive elegance and aging potential. Pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, grilled steak, braised meats, and aged cheeses.
