NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Nucerro Reserva presents a harmonious symphony of flavors, with aromas of ripe red berries, vanilla, and subtle hints of spice.On the palate, it unfolds layers of black cherry, plum, and cedar, supported by silky tannins and well-integrated oak. This classic Rioja Reserva pairs seamlessly with grilled lamb chops, chorizo paella, or aged Manchego cheese.
While delightful now, Nucerro Reserva has the structure to age gracefully for 5-10 years, evolving into an even more refined and nuanced expression of Rioja's terroir.
