Enquire about availabilityTasting notes
The 2014 Reserva is mostly Tempranillo with 5% Mazuelo from the plots Altos de Valecilla, Calvo, Martelo and Berzal around the winery in Páganos-La Guardia. The destemmed and crushed grapes underwent a ten-day cold soak and fermented in stainless steel. 80% of the volume matured in oak barrels for 18 months. The wine comes through with strong toasty and smoky aromas and roasted coffee notes. The palate has abundant, chalky tannins that might need some more time in bottle.

About this wine
Torre de Oña - Reserva
Experience the rich and complex flavours of Torre de Oña - Reserva, a premium wine crafted by one of the most renowned wineries in the Rioja region of Spain. This wine is made from a blend of Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo grapes, carefully selected from the best vineyards in the area.
The wine is aged for 18 months in oak barrels, which gives it a deep ruby colour and a complex aroma of ripe red fruits, vanilla, and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-structured, with a perfect balance of acidity and tannins. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a pleasant aftertaste of toasted oak and dark chocolate.
The history of Torre de Oña dates back to the 19th century when the winery was founded by the Oña family. Today, it is part of the La Rioja Alta S.A. group, which is known for its commitment to quality and tradition. The winery is located in the heart of the Rioja Alavesa region, where the climate and soil are ideal for growing high-quality grapes.
Enjoy Torre de Oña - Reserva with grilled meats, stews, or mature cheeses. It is also a perfect match for special occasions and celebrations. Serve it at room temperature and let it breathe for a few minutes before drinking to fully appreciate its complexity and depth.
