Seduction, Fresh Fruit, and Masterful Aging from Rioja Alta
Roda Reserva 2021 Red Wine 750 ml represents the pinnacle of Bodegas Roda's philosophy, located in the legendary Barrio de la Estación of Haro (Rioja Alta). This modern classic masterfully blends Tempranillo with small contributions of Graciano and Garnacha from old bush-trained vineyards with organic certification. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place in French oak vats, followed by 14 months of aging in French oak barrels (40% new and 60% second use) and a prolonged refinement in the bottle. Classified as a completely dry red wine, the Roda Reserva 2021 stands out for its distinctly fruity profile (with prominent ripe yet crisp red fruit), its velvety texture, brilliant well-integrated acidity, and an enveloping journey of timeless elegance.
