Martinez Lacuesta Ventilla 71 2011

Stunning Reserva style Rioja made from selectively harvested grapes, fermented in French oak tanks and then aged in new American and French oak barrels before being bottled. Beautifully deep crimson with ripe fruit notes and hints of pastry. Fleshy and powerful with great tannins and concentration. This is a challenging and complex Rioja that will reward those that take on the challenge!
