Elaboration and Aging
Roda Reserva is made from grapes from vineyards over 30 years old. Yield of 1.5 kg/vine. Excellent expression of an Atlantic vintage that once again shows that in difficult climatic years, Roda is still at the top.
Roda Reserva is a blend of the Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Graciano varieties. The grapes come from old vineyards over 30 years old. The alcoholic fermentation was carried out in French oak vats.
Subsequently, the wine was aged for 16 months in half new, half used French oak barrels. Finally, Roda Reserva was refined with a bottle aging of 20 months.
Tasting Notes of Roda Reserva
- Appearance: Roda Reserva is a medium-bodied red wine with a cherry red color and a red rim.
- Nose: Very well-integrated wood, almost imperceptible. Very intense and fruity with sensations of red fruit in the cherry range, in the part of the pulp that sticks to the stone. Fresh and finely spiced. Sensation of fresh time and rain on the earth.
- Palate: Medium volume, with very fine and caressing tannins. Very fruity and fresh, clear notes of cherry. Long, persistent, very elegant, and delicate. Retro-nasal sensation that recalls the olfactory sensations. Magnificent feeling of freshness.
