Vina Bosconia Reserva, R. Lopez de Heredia, Rioja
€35.00
Viña Bosconia Reserva is made with Tempranillo (80%), Grenache (15%), Mazuelo and Graciano. This wine is aged for 5 years in barrels, with 2 manual rackings per year. Persistent on the nose, with a lot of fruit. It is mainly dominated by the Tempranillo, and its development in the mouth is round, with body, soft, fine and persistent.
Viña Bosconia wines come from the farm El Bosque. The farm El Bosque is located on the banks of the Ebro river, at an altitude of 410 metres, and approximately one kilometre away from the winery. It is bordered to the north by the Sierra de Cantabria, and the vineyards are planted on a hillside and oriented towards the south. This provides perfect sun exposure and accumulation of hours of light for the proper ripening of the bunches. This ripening is also ensured by the clayey-calcareous and gravelly nature of the soils, and by the average age of the vineyard, which is of around 40 years. It extends over a total area of 15 hectares, 11 of which are of Tempranillo, 2 of Red Grenache, 1 of Mazuelo and 1 of Graciano.
Lopez de Heredia are among the most traditional of Rioja wineries, yet every vintage they produce outstanding wines of great character and style.
