2016 | La Rioja Alta S.A. Gran Reserva 904 | Rioja 3L Altamente as the domaine’s single-vineyard SancerreSuch a deep and complex gran reserva with richness and depth. Genuinely intense and harmonious, with cigar box, pine cones, black mushrooms and high grade wood and vanilla. Juicy, flavorful and really long. Goes on for a minute, if not more. Such a hedonistic Rioja that delivers sheer pleasure. 90% tempranillo and 10% graciano. Drink or hold. 97 Pts James Suckling
