Technical Notes
The versatility of D.O. Catalunya
This Reserva is born from a careful selection of vineyards that allow the classic structure of the Marqués de Griñón house to be projected, taking advantage of the varietal richness and the Mediterranean climate that brings fullness to 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 the wood (leather, tobacco), guaranteeing great potential for evolution in the bottle.
