A sensation from Rioja

Don Jacobo's vineyards are located in the heart of the Rioja region, along the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. This Reserva Rioja is a blend of typical Spanish grape varieties: Garnache, Mazuelo, and Tempranillo. These three complement each other perfectly in this red wine, bringing out the best in each other. The Reserva designation refers to the production method. By law, wines with a 'Reserva' designation must be aged for at least 36 months, 12 of which in oak. However, Don Jacobo strives for the very best in its wines. This is one of the reasons why this Spanish red wine is aged for an impressive 22 months in oak in Don Jacobo's magnificent cellars.
