Martin Cendoya Reserva Rioja

Vintage: 2011
Description: Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\nA ruby color with a violet edge. Aromas of ripe black fruit, blackberry and plum, and toasted bread assembled with spicy notes of quality oak. This wine is full bodied, warm, silky, with ripe tannins giving great structure and body, pleasant to drink with mineral notes that give the wine a special character. Aged 5 months in new French oak barrels and then 2 years in the bottle to create an extraordinary complexity.\r\nWine Enthusiast 93 Points\r\nJames Suckling 92 Points\r\nAbout Rioja\r\nHailed as the star red variety in\u00a0Spain\u2019s most celebrated wine region,\u00a0Tempranillo\u00a0from\u00a0Rioja, or simply labeled, \u201cRioja,\u201d produces elegant wines with complex notes of red and black fruit, crushed rock, leather, toast and tobacco, whose best examples are fully capable of decades of improvement in the cellar.\r\nRioja wines are typically a blend of fruit from its three sub-regions: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental, although specific sub-region (zonas), village (municipios) and vineyard (vi\u00f1edo singular) wines can now be labeled. Rioja Alta and Alavesa, at the highest elevations, are considered to be the source of the brightest, most elegant fruit, while grapes from the warmer and drier, Rioja Oriental, produce wines with deep color, great body and richness.
