Description: A distinguished and age-worthy Rioja, Marques de Vargas Gran Reserva 2017 is crafted from exceptional estate-grown fruit and matured extensively in oak before further bottle ageing. This flagship wine embodies the elegance, complexity, and longevity that define Spainβs finest Gran Reservas. The nose is richly layered with aromas of ripe black cherry, blackberry, and plum, intertwined with notes of cedar, tobacco, vanilla, leather, cocoa, and sweet baking spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and beautifully structured, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, refined finish that balances ripe fruit with savoury complexity. Powerful yet graceful, this Gran Reserva is a classic expression of Rioja, offering remarkable depth and excellent ageing potential.
