- This is a classically made Rioja, which shows wonderful aromatic complexity of red berries, liquorice and hints of smokiness, cedar and spice oak flavours. A warm and heady palate leads to a mature and rich finish.
A careful selection of the fruit took place, enabling winemaker Javier to perform long maceration periods to ensure good extraction of tannins, aroma and flavour components. Each grape variety was fermented separately in vats at controlled temperatures of 28 to 30°C. The wine was racked into large American oak vats before being left to age for 18 months in oak casks. After bottling, the Reserva was bottle-aged in the cellar to develop its bouquet and harmonious character.

| Winery | The fruit for Hugonell Reserva comes from vineyards in Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Alta. The average age of the vines is approximately 25 years, and the soil patterns in the vineyards are a combination of the well-known limestone/clay/alluvial mixture found in most of Central Rioja. Rioja has many different styles, from the traditional strawberry, oaky Bordeaux-influenced wines to some of the more modern, lighter styles. We searched for the best of both worlds – a fruit-driven modern style of wine at Joven level and more concentrated, typical flavours in the Crianza and Reserva levels. Carefully selected growers from this area produce the Hugonell Joven. The Ondarre winery, located 10km from Rioja’s capital of Logrono, is the specialist division of The Bodegas Olarra Group for producing Crianza and Reserva wines. We are delighted to offer this unique trio of wines with their original, distinctive packaging. |
