Bodega Ostatu Rioja Gran Reserva, 2011 hand harvested They hired a flavor scientistMade from the finest Tempranillo and Graciano grapes, this wine is aged for 24 months in oak casks and an additional 5 months in oak tubs, resulting in a long lasting, elegant wine with pronounced acidity. With aromas of candied fruit, woodwork, tobacco, and fine cocoa, and a sweet, velvety and spicy taste, this wine is a true expression of the potential of great vintages in Samaniego. Pair with roasted lamb and spicy rice or an old fashioned paella.
