The La Rioja Alta Viña Arana Reserva is an intense Spanish red wine with a deep ruby color.On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits, plums, and cherries mingle with sweet spices and a hint of toasted oak. On the palate, the soft tannins and balanced acidity give this wine a full-bodied, velvety texture. Its long finish is filled with notes of ripe red fruits, spices, and a subtle smoky character.
