2017 Carlos Serres Rioja Reserva
Grape
Tempranillo
Its Origins
"In 1896, a Frenchman named Charles Serres settled in Haro with the aim of producing wines using the experience he had already gained in France and the knowledge he was acquiring in La Rioja. This blend led him to create a style of his own which has lasted until the present in the new facilities that replaced the bodega in Barrio de la Estación in order to keep his traditional winemaking techniques up to date with new technology. Bodegas Carlos Serres,S.A. have 50 ha. of vineyards in an area superbly located for the production of high quality grapes, which give rise to superb wines, always produced in the traditional way, the most widely used variety being tempranillo."

What The Critics Say
93/100 Wine Enthusiast, Mike DeSimone (2016 vintage)
"This ruby-colored wine has aromas of cherry, dark chocolate and freshly ground espresso. It is bright in the mouth, with flavors of pomegranate, strawberry, white chocolate and orange zest, with hints of herbes de Provence. Downy tannins drift off into an enduring finish."
