Bodegas Viñícola Real 200 Monges Selección Espéciale Reserva Red 2010

Tim Atkin MW 95 points

"A very well-aged Rioja reserva that shows warm spices, dried oranges, walnuts, hazelnuts, chocolate, rich plums and berries. Concentrated and quite long on the palate, with some wood tannins that are still quite present. But in another two to three years, it should shine. Drink after 2026." - James Suckling.

WINERY NOTE:

This is a limited edition that is only produced when the vintage promises extraordinary potential.

The Tempranillo variety reigns supreme in this complex and elegant wine. We select the best grapes from our oldest vineyards so that the terroir is the true protagonist of the wine and expresses the nuances of its landscape. The new French barrel provides the complexity and finesse that will be the key to the long process of evolution in the bottle.

A wine for ageing that represents a perfect balance between tradition and modernity.
