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.
Meet the Producer
Bodegas Franco-Españolas was founded in 1890 by Bordeaux native Frederick Anglade Saurat. Located on the banks of the Ebro River, the winery has a rich history and has been in the hands of the Eguizábal family since 1984. Today, it is recognized as a benchmark in La Rioja for its quality wines and cultural contributions.
Production
Tempranillo grapes are carefully selected from the three Rioja sub-regions. The wine undergoes extended ageing in a combination of American and French oak barrels of medium toast, followed by additional bottle ageing, to develop complexity, depth, and refined tannins.

Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
