2006BodegasUrbinaRiojaReservaEspecial

Sans

Bodegas Urbina have produced a very classic Rioja from the excellent 2006 vintage that has since developed beautifully in the bottle. The nose has aromas of fine black fruits, black cherries, ripe plum, leather and tobacco notes, all perfectly integrated with the oak. The palate is round, silky and smooth, and has a voluptuous, sweet mid-section with delicious ripe berry and mature fruits. Refreshing acidity; elegant, complex, very classy.

Reviews taken from Decanter magazine’s Rioja Guide 2023:

“Developed style, with lots of vanilla, freshness and dried herbs and fruits. Crisp brambly acidity that is still full of energy. Drink 2023-2036.â€?/em>93 pts, Pedro Ballesteros Torres, decanter.com
