Enologist:
Javier Martínez de Salinas
D.O.C. Rioja Grapes: Tempranillo 75%, Garnacha 10%, Mazuelo y
Graciano 15%
Ageing:
After fermentation, the wine was racked
several times in large American-oak vats
before being left to age for 18 months in
oak casks. After bottling, Anares Reserva
has been kept in our bottle cellar to
develop its bouquet and harmonious
character.
TASTING NOTES
Deep cherry red with ruby hues, Añares
Reserva is a wine for laying down. Its
aromatic complexity includes red berries,
liquorice and hints of smokiness, opening up
towards animal aromas after opening. In the
mouth, it proves to be long and with good
backbone, with a reminder of the fruit
returning in the aftertaste.
