L'avis des experts
Beautiful transparency here with fresh flowers, green tobacco, pine needles, crushed stones and sandalwood. Dark fruits in the center. Full-bodied with a wonderful balance of fruit and fine tannins as well as mineral, fresh bark and delicate purple fruit. Subtlety with energy. Youthful now and drinkable, but even better in 2026.
The 2016 Viña Arana Gran Reserva is an elegant blend of Tempranillo with 5% Graciano matured in used American oak barrels for three years. During this time, the wine was manually racked from barrel to barrel, with the help of a candle, six times. It's ripe at 14.5% alcohol, with pungent notes of forest floor and truffles, dark spices and an earthy touch. It has a powerful palate, with very good freshness and acidity, reflecting the cooler year. It has some tannins that would welcome food. 60,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2021.
Le 10 juillet 1890, cinq vignerons du Pays Basque et de La Rioja fondent, dans le quartier de la Gare de Haro, la "Société Vinicole de la Rioja Alta".

De LRA, delicioso. Mi bodega riojana favorita. Hermano mayor del Viña Ardanza
Es como volver a casa y que mamá te suba en brazos y te dé besos. ESA felicidad.
Baste decir que supera al Viña Ardanza, con mucho menos precio
