Technical Notes
The versatility of D.O. Catalunya
This Reserva comes from a careful selection of vineyards that allow for projecting the classic structure of the Marqués de Griñón house, taking advantage of the varietal richness and Mediterranean climate that brings fullness to the Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Extended Aging
With a minimum rest of 24 months in mixed oak barrels, the wine achieves a perfect integration between mature black fruit and the tertiary contributions of wood (leather, tobacco), guaranteeing great potential for evolution in the bottle.
