Royal Rioja Gran Reserva is a rich and elegant red wine from Rioja, Spain, made from 100% Tempranillo grapes sourced from Rioja Alta, Alavesa, and Oriental. Aged for a minimum of 30 months in new and second-year American and French oak barrels followed by 36 months in bottle, it shows a ruby red colour with russet hues, offering complex aromas of red fruit, spice, balsamic, leather, and dried fruit. The palate is elegant and structured, with robust, ripe tannins and a long, lingering finish.
