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