Bodegas Riojanas Monte Real Reserva

An exceptional, timeless Spanish red wine crafted by the historic Bodegas Riojanas, showcasing a classic expression deeply rooted in the heart of Cenicero. Made entirely from 100% Tempranillo selected from old vines grown more than 400 meters above sea level in Rioja Alta, this hallmark wine undergoes meticulous fermentation followed by 24 months of extensive aging in premium oak casks, followed by additional refinement in the bottle. It displays an intense cherry-red hue with subtle vermilion reflections on the rim, opening into a layered, complex bouquet of fresh red berries, ripe black currants, and liquorice, beautifully integrated with sweet notes of vanilla, dark chocolate, nutmeg, and warm baking spices on a beautifully fleshy, silky-smooth, and structured palate.

Food Pairing: This structured and highly elegant red wine pairs spectacularly with slow-braised lamb shanks, grilled ribeye steaks, roasted duck breast, or premium plates of cured charcuterie and aged Manchego cheese.
