    Awards

    Like the winery's Reserva, this is a cuvée of Tempranillo and 10% Graciano that's aged in a combination of French and American oak. Sourced from older vines above 500 metres, it's stylish, poised and harmonious, with notes of sweet kitchen spices, berry fruit and tangy minerality. 2019-25
