2010 Gran Reserva 890, La Rioja Alta, Rioja, Spain

Description

The 2010 890 Gran Reserva is La Rioja Alta’s first since 2005 and is still the most recent release from this Spanish icon. Only produced in the very best and classic vintages, the 2010 would make a stunning addition to any collection. With cigar box, leather and cassis notes, this is full bodied and intense in it’s relative youth. Although if you give it time, this is going to develop over the next couple of decades into a carefully balanced gem. The 890 is always amongst my favourite wines and the 2010 Gran Reserva is a prime example of why this is the case.

About this wine

Tempranillo/Tinto Fino

A high quality red wine grape that is grown all over Spain except in the hot South - it is known as Tinto Fino in Ribera del Duero, Cencibel in La Mancha and Valdepenas and Ull de Llebre in Catalonia. Its spiritual home is in Rioja and Navarra where it constitutes around 70% of most red blends.

La Rioja Alta

La Rioja Alta continues to be one of the benchmarks for traditionally produced Rioja wine. Established in 1890 at the same spot where their head office sits today, their three Reserva Wine brands, Alberdi, Arana and Ardanza are named after the founding families, all three of which remain shareholders. The company still maintains traditional Rioja winemaking practices whilst embracing many of the new technological advances.
