About the wine
Grab a few now!
- It’s not just common old Reserva, this is Gran Reserva - and in Spain this actually means something. Only top quality grapes are used – the grapes that have the best fruit, structure and intensity.
- And the wine is matured slowly, in toasty oak barrels to give it that mellow, smooth, caramel and vanilla flavour. Yum!
- And this winemaker isn't just telling you to sit on the bottle for six years, he's already aged the wine for you so you're getting a 2005 that is ready to enjoy!
