Ontanon Rioja Reserva Spain
€27,99
The product of some of the oldest vines, Ontañon Reserva displays notes of deep, full fruit flavors but with ample acidity, minerality and earth notes drawn from the land where the fruit is grown. It has backbone, fine-laced acidity, structure and natural grape tannins that that will ensure its integrity for years to come. Delicious with lamb, roast pork, game, mushroom risotto and meat-based pasta dishes.
Reservas are produced only in vintages of exceptional quality, and the Ontañon Reserva comes from the most select vineyards on the slopes of the Sierra Yerga Mountains, just above the town of Quel in Rioja baja.
Raquel, Rubén and María Pérez Cuevas are part of the fifth generation of the Pérez Cuevas family to carry on the tradition of grape growing in the southern part of Rioja. Their father, Gabriel, inherited a portion of his family's vineyard in the early 1980s, Gabriel began making wine from these vineyards rather than selling the fruit as his ancestors had. He was determined to produce wines that embodied the region of Quel, where his family had deep roots and where he believed the highest quality wines from Rioja were produced. The fruit from this part of Rioja was known to be among the best of the Rioja region.
