Product Description
Details

The vineyards bordering the Granja Ntra. Sra. de Remelluri estate lie halfway between the villages of Labastida and San Vicente de la Sonsierra.

Despite the fact that these two villages are not far from one another, the vineyards produce two substantially different wines: one is the crisp, elegant red wine Lindes de Remelluri Viñedos de Labastida; the other is Remelluri Viñedos de San Vicente, typically riper and more concentrated.

Made basically from Tempranillo (89%), this Spanish red wine is nuanced with 6% Grenache and 5% Graciano. All come from vines grown in sandy-limestone soils.

Manually harvested, carefully selected and destemmed, alcoholic fermentation and skin maceration were carried out in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation took place in 225-litre oak barrels and 5,000-litre French oak vats, after which this red wine from La Rioja was aged for a period of 13 months.

After being blended and bottled, the red wine Lindes de Remelluri Viñedos de Labastida 2020 was aged for 12 months minimum before hitting the market.

We suggest that you aerate this Crianza red wine 30 minutes before you drink it.

Appearance

The red wine Lindes de Remelluri Viñedos de Labastida is medium ruby with garnet tinges and a reddish rim.

Nose

Compellingly expressive and richly nuanced, this blend of Tempranillo, Grenache and Graciano carries subtle aromas of forest berries, broom, autumn leaves and forest flowers, with some understated spicy notes and some mineral and balsamic intimations.

Palate

This wine from Bodega Granja Nuestra Sra. de Remelluri is linear, pure and fresh, with a steely acidity, nicely integrated tannins and long, elegant finish. Lovely and well-defined.

Our personal opinion

Precise and terroir-driven, the red wine Lindes de Remelluri Viñedos de Labastida 2020 showcases the Atlantic side of La Rioja.

Rioja Got the right body but Proves bland and disappointing compared to similar years
