The Reserva is a wine made from the oldest vines near the village of Aguilera. Here the vineyards are mainly Tempranillo, but like old vines the world over, many other varieties, red and white, are mixed in. Rather than separate these varieties, Jorge feels that a true representation of these sites is best captured by co-fermenting them. This cuvée sees nearly three years in barrel – half of that time waiting for the malolactic fermentation to finish! This slow elevage results in a wine with remarkable poise and complexity.
