Description
Santalba Reserva 2018
by Santalba is a sophisticated red wine made from 100% Tempranillo, sourced from the renowned Rioja region in Spain. This wine offers rich and complex tasting notes of dark berries such as blackberry and black cherry, along with hints of tobacco, vanilla, and a subtle touch of spice from oak aging. Aged for 18 months in French and American oak barrels, it develops a well-structured body, with balanced acidity and silky tannins, culminating in a long, smooth finish. Ideal for pairing with grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses, this wine reflects the traditional craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail that Santalba is known for. The 2018 Reserva showcases the quality and elegance of Rioja wines, offering both depth and finesse, and stands as a prime example of Santalba’s commitment to producing wines that express the true essence of the region’s terroir.
