Tempranillo grapes for this classic Rioja Reserva are cherry-picked from Torres' best terroirs, then aged for 16 months in French oak and a further 20 months in bottle before release. It's drinking beautifully now, showing savoury secondary leathery characters along with ripe red fruits and sweet oak spice.
