Faustino Rivero Ulecia Rioja Gran Reserva 2016, Rioja, Spain
Deep garnet with pronounced brick tones. The aroma is fully developed showing dried cherry, fig and prune with layers of leather, tobacco, spice and cedar.
The palate is medium to full-bodied, with concentrated fruit of dried cherry, fig and blackberry supported by fine, resolved tannins and integrated acidity. Complex savoury notes and oak-derived spice unfold through the mid-palate, finishing long, elegant and persistent.
A classic Gran Reserva with depth, complexity and refinement.
