NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Burgo Viejo Rioja Reserva is a classic and elegant wine from the Rioja region in Spain.This wine is made primarily from the Tempranillo grape, which is known for producing wines with great structure and aging potential. On the nose, Burgo Viejo Rioja Reserva offers enticing aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, along with hints of vanilla, tobacco, and spice. These complex aromas are a result of the wine's aging in oak barrels, which adds depth and character.
