PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS

- Sector: Wine Red
Varieties 90 % Tempranillo, 5 % Garnacha, 5 % Mazuelo. 14,5% by vol. Vineyards Made with our best grapes, selected from our highest vineyards with an age of over 50 years. These vines produce an average of 3.000 Kg of grapes per hectare. Winemaking: The time that the wine spends in French oak barrels varies according to the characteristics of the harvest. The wine remains there for long enough to achieve a perfect fruit-oak balance (18 months minimum). The wine evolution is completed by a long stay in the bottle (16 months minimum). Tasting notes: The result of this careful grape selection and painstaking elaboration is a wine with soul and its own personality. Aradón Reserva has a high intensity, dark red cherry colour. On the palate it starts soft, then develops an elegant medium palate that becomes rich and full-bodied. Fruity aromas blend perfectly with toasty sensations. Mineral and forest floor notes on the finish. Ideal for grilling vegetables, beans, red meats, stews, cheeses and cold meats.

Vintage: 2016, 90 plus points by Robert ParkerBodegas Aradón
Bodegas Aradon was founded in 1957 in the village Alcanadre, 25km from Logroño, La Rioja, Spain. The history of our winery has been closely linked to the history of the Romans in the 1st century A.C. They introduced the Mediterranen crops: the vine and the olive tree. Romans entered the Iberian Peninsula through the Ebro delta in the 1st century A.C. They settled in a village called “Aradon”. Nowadays our vineyards grow free in that magic place. We grow different grape varieties, such as Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo, Graciano, Viura, White Garnacha. All of them come from our 400 hectares of own vineyard. Our vines have a sustainable growing in harmony with the nature, thanks to the use of traditional and modern ways.
