Color
Deep dark golden yellow.
Nose
The 2013 Rioja Blanco Gran Reserva from Remirez de Ganuza is elegant and powerful at the same time. Its aroma fascinates with tobacco, green banana, pear mousse, verveine tea and a hint of liquorice. It is juicy, powerful and expressive.
Palate
On the palate, the impression of the nose is confirmed, fruit mixes with herbs and a touch of wood, all finely interwoven. Despite its fullness, it flows pleasantly down the palate with a certain lightness. It is intense, delicately salty and at the same time powerful.
Be sure to decant and enjoy not too cold from a large glass.
