Tasting CharacteristicsVega del Río Rioja Reserva Tinto 2017 follows the classical Rioja philosophy, where time and balance shape the wine more than sheer ripeness. Built primarily on Tempranillo, the wine undergoes extended oak aging to develop tertiary complexity while preserving fruit clarity. Bottle aging further softens tannins and integrates oak, resulting in a composed, savory profile. This is Rioja Reserva in its traditional sense—structured, layered, and ready to drink.
Aromas and flavours:
Primary
Aroma/Nose: Red cherry, dried plum, and raspberry, layered with notes of vanilla, cedar, tobacco, leather, and sweet spice.
Secondary
Palate/Taste: Medium-plus bodied and refined, showing red fruit, dried herbs, and subtle earthy tones. Tannins are smooth and resolved, while acidity remains present, giving the wine lift and balance. Oak is fully integrated, adding depth rather than dominance.
Tertiary
Finish: Long, dry, and harmonious, with lingering notes of red fruit, spice, and gentle savory complexity.
GastronomyServe at 16–18°C and consider a brief decant to refresh aromatics. This Rioja Reserva pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef, pork, and classic Spanish dishes. Its savory profile also complements mushroom-based cuisine, cured meats, and semi-aged cheeses. An ideal choice for relaxed, food-centered dinners where elegance matters more than intensity.
