Wine Description

The varied soils and friendly climate of Rioja Alta give this wine its inimitable style and character. Harvested at the end of September, this wine shows ripeness and development of flavor not typically expressed with such finesse.

The 2007 Finca Valpiedra Reserva is a blend of 92% Tempranillo, 6% Graciano and 2% Maturana Tinta that sees 24 months aging in French oak.
— Wine Advocate, Aug 2012

“Concentrated and full bodied, this is an unusually rich Rioja that is only now (after 6 years) beginning to mature. It has excellent fruit and depth, and a firm, long, lightly tannic finish, tasting of tobacco, berry jam, black licorice, toast, raspberry, and spicy oak. Excellent.”
— Restaurant Wine, Oct 2013
