WINE DESCRIPTION

Remírez de Ganuza Rioja Viña Coqueta hails from the autonomous region of Rioja, located in the north of Spain. This wine is predominantly composed of Tempranillo with a touch of Graciano that brings notes of violets and structure by providing firm acidity and grippy tannins. The wines are fermented separately in stainless steel and concrete tanks, before undergoing a period of maturation in a combination of new and used French and American oak barrels for around 26 months. Finally, the wines are blended and aged in bottle prior to their release.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Remírez de Ganuza Rioja Viña Coqueta reveals a medium to deep ruby color with slight garnet reflections.On the nose, this wine offers a complex bouquet of ripe red and dark fruits, such as strawberries, plums and blackberries, intertwined with subtle notes of vanilla, cedar, and coconut. The aromas are well-integrated and harmonious, indicating long maturation and judicious use of oak. Upon tasting, it is full-bodied and round, with chalky tannins that provide structure and balance. The flavors of fruits persist on the palate, accompanied by hints of leather and tobacco, whilst the vibrant acidity drives the lingering finish.
