Tasting Note

This wine shows a striking orange-hued robe with a brick-toned rim, hinting at its age and traditional style. On the nose, it offers gentle vanilla notes with a subtle retronasal depth, unfolding into layers of leather, tobacco, and delicate dried flowers. The palate is elegant and smooth, with a mellow, velvety texture and a finely tuned balance between fruit, spice, and acidity. It finishes with impressive length, leaving a lasting impression of grace and refinement.

Product Notes

Bodegas Hermanos Pecina Rioja Reserva is an exquisite Spanish wine showing the classic elegance of a premium Rioja. The blend is primarily Tempranillo, resulting in a rich, full-bodied wine with sophisticated complexity. The aroma is filled with red summer fruits, subtle spice and oak characteristics acquired during its long barrel aging. On the palate, it's smooth and velvety, delivering a well-balanced symphony of ripe plum, black cherry, vanilla, and toasted oak notes. Fine, integrated tannins show great potential for ageing. This Reserva exhibits an unfaltering, lingering finish that is the hallmark of Bodegas Hermanos Pecina's winemaking style.
