Classic Rioja Gran Reserva

Tasting Notes

Monte Real Gran Reserva Rioja 2017 is a beautiful expression of the Rioja region, offering depth and elegance in every sip. The wine presents a deep ruby colour, with an inviting bouquet of ripe red fruits such as cherries and blackberries, complemented by subtle aromas of tobacco, leather, and a touch of vanilla from its oak aging. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a well-balanced acidity. Flavours of dark fruit, cocoa, and spices are perfectly integrated, leading to a long, smooth finish that is both refined and complex. A wine that is ready to drink now, but will continue to evolve in the bottle.

Perfect Serve

Serve at 16–18°C, ideally decanted to enhance the aromas and flavour. This Gran Reserva is an excellent match for rich, meaty dishes such as roast lamb, steak, or grilled pork. It’s also a great pairing with aged cheeses, charcuterie, and hearty stews, making it perfect for special occasions.

Artisan Craftsmanship

Produced by Monte Real, this Gran Reserva is made from a selection of the finest Tempranillo grapes, sourced from Rioja Alta vineyards. After fermentation, the wine undergoes extensive aging, spending 24 months in American and French oak barrels, followed by a further 36 months of bottle aging. This process creates a wine with remarkable structure, balance, and complexity, making it a standout in the Rioja Gran Reserva category.
