Details

If one were to choose the archetypical Rioja, La Rioja Alta 904 Gran Reserva would probably be among the top three candidates for the title of «Quintessential Rioja wine».

The result of a vintage qualified as «Excellent» by the La Rioja regulatory board, this Spanish red wine is made from a traditional blend of two local varieties. The Tempranillo (90% of the blend) comes from over 60-year-old vines, while the younger Graciano is grown in the town of Fuenmayor, not far from the winery’s headquarters in Haro (Logroño).

The vinification process took place inside stainless steel tanks and was completed in January 2016. After finishing malolactic fermentation, this Gran reserva red wine was transferred into 4th and 5th year American oak barrels – built in the winery’s own cooperage – and aged for 4 years. Racking was performed every 6 months.

Masterly crafted and aged by the La Rioja Alta winery, La Rioja Alta 904 Gran Reserva 2015 was bottled in February 2020. Finally, the wine was aged for 36 months in the bottle before its commercial release.

This Rioja red wine has a remarkable ageing potential.

We suggest that you gently decant it at least 1 hour before drinking.

Nose	Marvelously evocative, this blend of Tempranillo and Graciano benefits from an excellent vintage and a skilfull ageing. The nose yields complex notes of ripe wild berries, jammy touches, and a string of wonderful aromas: vanilla, cocoa, coconut, tobacco leaves and, finally, a delicate, exotic scent of Moroccan leather over a balsamic background.

Our personal opinion	Simply put, La Rioja Alta 904 Gran Reserva 2015 is the embodiment of La Rioja, one of the great wine regions in the world. In order to fully enjoy it, it is advisable to pair it with mild recipes.
Palate	This classy red wine produced by Bodega La Rioja Alta is a fully grown-up wine, confident, silky and expressive. Toasted notes of arabica coffee combine with hints of spices and fresh hints of red berries. A crisp acidity wonderfully sustains the wine, but in a discreet, gentlemanly manner. A pure delight on the palate, Gran Reserva 904 has a very long finish which leaves an aftertaste of tobacco, cocoa, underbrush, Moroccan leather and red fruit.
Occasion	A special occasion, Romantic Dinner, To bring to an engagement
