NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This wine is classified as a Reserva, which means it has been aged for a minimum of three years, with at least one year in oak barrels.On the nose, Bodegas Olarra Reciente Reserva offers a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, accompanied by subtle hints of vanilla and spices. The oak aging is evident, adding layers of complexity and a touch of smokiness to the aroma.
The palate is equally impressive, with a harmonious balance between fruit, oak, and acidity. The ripe red fruits continue to shine, accompanied by notes of black pepper and a touch of leather. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a smooth and velvety texture.
