WINE DESCRIPTION
Hidden among the western slopes of the Pyrenees, on the border with Rioja Baja, lies the winery Viña Herminia.
Joaquín Lagunilla's deep love for his wife inspired him to create this special vineyard and wine in her honor, which he named "Viña Herminia" in 1949.
With top-notch facilities, well-kept vineyards, and quality oak barrels, this winery is all about quality. It is their mission to shake up the Rioja scene with a fresh, modern approach.
The result is a well-balanced and elegant wine, with notes of ripe red fruits, subtle oak, and a smooth, velvety texture. Vina Herminia Rioja Crianza is a perfect choice for those seeking a refined and enjoyable wine experience.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, this wine offers a bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and strawberries, accompanied by subtle hints of vanilla and spice from the oak aging.The aromas are well-integrated and provide a pleasant complexity.
The palate is smooth and balanced, with a medium body and moderate acidity. The ripe fruit flavors continue to shine, complemented by notes of tobacco and leather. The oak influence adds a touch of elegance and structure to the wine, with soft tannins that contribute to a lingering finish.
