| Description: | Tempranillo w/ a dash of Graciano. This is a sleek, modern Rioja with plenty of up-front pleasure with its powerful fruit and toasty French oak, while maintaining a typical Rioja balance and finesse! Aged 15 months in French oak. James Suckling 93 Points - " Plums, dried herbs, tea leaves, cloves and baking spices on the nose. Its full-bodied with chewy tannins. Chalky and structured with a core of black fruit at the center palate.". Orben was founded in the mid-1990s by the Anton family of Artevino fame (Izadi, Vetus, Villacreces) and a group of restaurateur-investors. Located near the village of Laguardia the estate farms 79 small vineyard plots all planted between 1945 and 1954. Due to the proximity and relative homogeneity of these sites located at 550675 meters above sea level and on calcareous clay-limestone soils, the Anton family made the decision to create a separate estate to promote this individual terroir." - European Cellars, Importer.
