Urbina Gran Reserva 2007

Fans of traditional barrel and bottle-aged Riojas should flock to buy this poised, beautifully mature Gran Reserva from Cuzcurrita and Uruñuela. Still full of life, it has aromas and flavours that are almost Pinot Noir-like in their purity and delicacy. Sweet and red-fruited with top notes of oregano and vanilla spice. Drink date: 2024-2029.
