Viña Ardanza Reserva Magnum 2017 is an outstanding wine from the D.O.Ca. Rioja, produced by the prestigious winery La Rioja Alta, S.A. This wine combines 80% Tempranillo from vineyards over 30 years old with 20% Garnacha from the La Pedriza estate, famous for its stony soil that provides unique structure. Harvesting is done manually, and each variety ferments separately. Aging is an artisanal process, with Tempranillo in American oak barrels for 36 months and Garnacha for 30 months. The result is a wine of great complexity, with notes of ripe red fruit, spices, and balsamic hints. With a Magnum format of 1.5L, it ensures slow evolution and excellent aging potential of over 15 years. It is recommended to serve at a temperature of 16-18ºC, ideal for pairing with red meats and cheeses. Endorsed by international critics like Robert Parker and James Suckling.
