The Vino Tinto Olarra Gran Reserva from Grupo Bodegas Olarra presents this Red Wine from D.O.Ca Rioja (Spain) made with the grape varieties Tempranillo, Mazuelo, and Garnacha.
Aging and Production
To produce this Vino Tinto Olarra Gran Reserva, a traditional production process from the seventies is carried out. It comes from old vines planted in poor, low-yielding soils. It was bottled in early 2015 without prior tartaric stabilization to preserve its structure and freshness intact.
Regarding its aging, this Red Wine undergoes a reduction of the macerations to prioritize the liveliness of the wine, achieving greater finesse and structure on the palate. It is worth noting that at the end of fermentation, it is carried out without the grape skins, subsequently undergoing malolactic fermentation and aged primarily in new barrels from Missouri and central France. The second-year aging takes place in old barrels to enhance primary aromas and fermentation aromas over those of aging itself.
Bodegas Olarra
The origins of this winery come from a building, a work by Juan Antonio Ridruejo in 1973, designed and conceived for wine. The most emblematic feature is its roof that crowns the barrel room, which is formed by 11 hexagonal domes that help prevent sudden temperature changes.
This design was intended to be conveyed in the wines and in the way of making the wines, such as in Añares, where a wine is sought that can adapt and evolve to remain on trend over time. Becoming emblems of true Rioja wine.
For the Añares line, not only red wines are produced, but also whites, rosés, and special vintages. This positions Bodegas Olarra as one of the emblematic wineries in the area that has remained a reference in Rioja wine, adaptable and has known how to continue with the passage of time.

Sight: 'Capa profunda color rubí con tonos iodados.'
Mouth: ' La entrada en boca es suave y sin aristas, con gran concentración de componentes sápidos que dotan de solidez al paladar medio. Largo tras ser tragado, se aprecian bien su estructura y viveza.'
Nose: 'En nariz destaca la complejidad de los aromas formados durante su estancia en botella, el bouquet. Todo un muestrario de aromas que se suceden tras la decantación del vino; balsámicos, especiados, ahumados... El recuerdo de frutos rojos y negros permanece'
