Marqués de Cáceres Gran Reserva 2016

The Gran Reserva of the range is only made in excellent or very good vintage years, with this coupage made from 85% Tempranillo, 15% Graciano and Garnacha Tinta. The lengthy time the wine has spent ageing and maturing enhances both fruit and freshness, as well as enriching the wine with a singular complexity. A ruby-red colour of great intensity, the wine releases a profusion of ripe woodland berry fruit aromas on the nose, complemented by vanilla and light roasted notes. There is plenty of fullness on the palate which is meaty and fresh, accompanied by fine tannins which highlight its structure and complexity. Its elegance and intense flavours contribute to making this a most pleasurable wine. Aged for 26 months in French oak barrels. Subsequent repose in bottle for at least a further 3 years.
