2017 La Rioja Alta S.A. "Viña Ardanza" Rioja Reserva 1,5lt. Magnum
2017 La Rioja Alta S.A. “Viña Ardanza” Rioja Reserva (1.5 L Magnum)
A timeless and beautifully crafted Rioja Reserva that embodies the elegance and tradition of La Rioja Alta. The 2017 “Viña Ardanza” reveals expressive aromas of ripe red cherry, plum, and dried orange peel, layered with notes of vanilla, tobacco, and sweet spice from long oak aging. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a perfect harmony of fruit, oak, and earthy complexity. The finish is long, refined, and savory, with lingering notes of cedar and balsamic warmth. Outstanding in magnum format for aging or special occasions — perfect with roast lamb, grilled vegetables, or cured Spanish meats.
