Description:
This oak-aged Reserva gives the authentic taste of premium Rioja for such a great price. Navajas is a small family-run bodega near the village of Navarrete, in the heart of Rioja D.O.C., founded in 1918 and today run by Antonio Navajas and his wife.
Ageing:
American oak casks for a minimum of 20 months. After bottling the wine spends a further 4 years in bottle before release.
Brick red in appearance, the nose has a heady mix of fruit, vanilla and warming spice. The palate is rich and broad with fine fruit, integrated oak, soft tannins and spicy flavours. The finish is very long and absolutely exceptional.
Food Matches: Casseroles / Lamb / Smoked Fish / Soft Cheese
