Here it is: the long-awaited 2010 vintage of Rioja Alta 890 Gran Reserva from bodega La Rioja Alta.
Qualified as «Excellent» by the DOCa Rioja Regulatory Board, the mild climate of the summer season helped the fruit to achieve an almost perfect ripening through a slow, steady process.
As usual, this Spanish red wine is made basically from of old-vines Tempranillo (95%), complemented with a touch of Graciano (3%) and 2% Mazuela (aka Carignan).
After a meticulous harvest and a selection both on site and in the cellar, the grapes were destemmed, crushed, macerated and then fermented in stainless steel tanks.
After that, the Tempranillo and Mazuela wines were combined and the resulting blend was transferred into American oak barrels built in the winery’s own cooperage. The blend went through malolactic fermentation and then it was aged for 6 years, during which process it was racked 10 times. The Graciano wine completed the same process unaccompanied.
Only the best barrel samples were bottled in March 2017. Finally, Rioja Alta 890 Gran Reserva 2010 was aged for 54 months minimum in the cellar.
You should decant this Gran Reserva red wine for at least 4 hours before drinking.
