Sierra Cantabria Reserva Rioja 2018   

The 2019 Reserva Unica was produced with Tempranillo and 3% Graciano from one single vineyard, fermented, destemmed and with indigenous yeasts selected from their vineyards. It matured in oak barrels, 60% French and 40% American, for 24 months, including malolactic, and it was racked every four months. This is somewhere between the more classical range (Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva) and the more modern one. It's quite complete and balanced in a classical year, with ripeness, 14.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.66 and 5.6 grams of acidity, keeping the balance.
