WINE DESCRIPTION
Izadi Rioja Reserva is a premium red wine produced by Izadi, a renowned winery located in the heart of Rioja Alavesa, Spain. This wine is made from carefully selected Tempranillo grapes grown in the vineyards surrounding the winery, which benefit from the region's unique climate and soil conditions. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including aging in French and American oak barrels for 16 months, followed by bottle aging for at least 20 months. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of Rioja, with notes of ripe red fruit, vanilla, and spices, balanced by a firm structure and a long, smooth finish. Izadi Rioja Reserva is a perfect choice for those seeking a high-quality, authentic Rioja wine.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This full-bodied Rioja Reserva is a stunning example of age-worthy Spanish red.On the nose, aromas of ripe dark cherry and sweet tobacco lead to flavors of earthy red fruits and smoky spices. The tannins are firm and well-integrated, while a hint of herbal complexity and a long, lingering finish complete the experience. Enjoy this wine now or age it for up to 10 years.
