Baigorri Reserva 1500ml

A Rioja Reserva defined by its origin: the profound and chalky clay soils of San Vicente de la Sonsierra at 550m. They provide strength and concentration that has to be tempered by a long ageing. 100% Tempranillo. Low-yielding old vines (>45 years), estate-grown. Sustainable viticulture, 100% handcraft. After a manual picking, all the grapes are hand-selected. Long macerations and intracellular fermentations with indigenous yeasts in oak fermenters. Natural extraction by gravity. Malolactic fermentation and 18 months ageing in new French oak barrels. 93p Tim Atkin, 92p Guía Peñín.
