Remírez de Ganuza Reserva 2012
El Remírez de Ganuza refleja la esencia de la bodega. Está elaborado a partir de los hombros despalillados de los mejores racimos, solo aquellos provenientes de viñedos de una edad media de 60 años. Tanto la maloláctica como su crianza se lleva a cabo siempre en barrica nueva. Lo que se busca año tras año en este vino es que sea un fiel reflejo de su añada. Sin duda, uno de nuestros riojas predilectos.

Opinión de los críticos
There are more Mediterranean aromas in the 2011 Reserva, and the fruit feels riper and the wine more developed, as you can expect from a very warm year like 2011. It's full-bodied, and there are some dusty tannins that make it all the way to the finish. This is a ripe and powerful vintage that needs powerful food. However, I'd drink this sooner rather than later, as I'm not sure if the fruit would dry out before the tannins are fully resolved.
2012 was a hot dry year in Rioja, but there's no sign of it in this serious, concentrated but well-balanced cuvée of Tempranillo with 5% each of Graciano and white grapes. The new wood, which can be assertive when the wine is young, has integrated well with time. Plush black fruit flavours are complemented by fresh tobacco and vanilla notes, savoury tannins and underlying acidity. 2020-28
