Viña Ardanza Reserva 2017
Descrição
Viña Ardanza Reserva não é apenas um dos melhores vinhos de Rioja e de Espanha, mas também um emblema a nível internacional. Com cada colheita, conseguiu convencer tanto a crítica como o público. O seu lote já clássico de Tempranillo e Garnacha é puro equilíbrio e sedosidade. Nas palavras do seu criador, o enólogo Julio Sáenz, “destaca-se pela sua frescura e grande potencial para continuar a crescer. Faz-me lembrar as magníficas colheitas de Viña Ardanza, como 2005 ou 2015”.

A more vibrant and fruitier expression of Ardanza this year with strawberries, mussels, warm spices and berries. Round and silky on the palate with lovely spices and a long, nicely saline finish. A nice touch of creaminess works really well here and further extends the finish. 80% tempranillo and 20% garnacha. Drink or hold. - Zekun Shuai, Senior Editor.
Made, as many wines were in the past, with a combination of Tempranillo from the Rioja Alta sub-region and 20% Garnacha from Tudelilla in the Rioja Oriental, this is a delicious release of Ardanza that shows no sign of the heat of the 2017 growing season. Aged for three years in American oak, it's tangy, savoury, layered and complex, with leather and tobacco leaf aromas, wild strawberry and red cherry fruit and appealing vanilla sweetness. 2024-30
2017 was not an easy harvest, but it produced some beautiful and classical wines, like the 2017 Viña Ardanza Reserva, which shows a little more advancement and polish and is ready to drink. It was produced with 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha from their vineyard La Pedriza in Tudelilla. It fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and matured in American oak barrels, 36 months for the Tempranillo and 30 for the Garnacha (that was harvested 15 days later), with six rackings. It's ripe and aromatic, tertiary, with 14.5% alcohol and mellow acidity, a medium-bodied palate and sleek tannins. It has a pungent note of clove and pepper, some licorice and ink and the cherries in liqueur from the Garnacha. An updated classical Ardanza. 600,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2021.
