Vicente Gandía Raiza Gran Reserva Rioja

Vicente Gandía Raiza Gran Reserva Rioja is a red wine from Bodegas Vicente Gandía, a renowned winery in Spain. This wine is made in the Rioja region, which is known for its high quality and complex wines.

The term "Gran Reserva" refers to the highest quality classification in Rioja and implies a long aging of the wine. Regulations in Rioja require a Gran Reserva to mature for a minimum of 2 years in oak barrels and a further 3 years in the bottle before being released for consumption. This extensive aging process ensures a remarkable development of aromas and flavors in the wine.

Raiza Gran Reserva Rioja has a deep ruby red color with hints of mahogany development. On the nose, the wine offers complex aromas of ripe red fruits, such as plums and berries, along with notes of vanilla, tobacco, cedar and spices, which come from aging in oak barrels. On the palate, Raiza Gran Reserva Rioja presents itself as an elegant and velvety wine with ripe and silky tannins. Rich flavors of dried fruit, spices, tobacco and vanilla are perceived, with excellent balance and a long, lingering finish.

With the high quality and craftsmanship of Vicente Gandía, Raiza Gran Reserva Rioja is a beautiful representation of the most refined and complex wines from the Rioja region.

Wine - Food pairing

Raiza Gran Reserva Rioja is a wine that goes perfectly with dishes such as grilled red meats, game dishes, stews and matured cheeses. It is also a wine to cherish and enjoy in special moments, and can continue to mature in the bottle for many years to come.
