Tasting note

品飲筆記：這款 Reserva 呈現成熟櫻桃乾與紅色果實為主調，橘皮的明亮香氣帶來一抹清新，茶葉與煙草的細緻層次以及溫和的煙燻香讓風味更有深度。橡木帶出香草與奶油感，但不覆蓋果味，口感絲滑、酸度提振，收結悠長。 酒莊簡介：La Rioja Alta 成立於1890年，是里奧哈經典的代表之一，擅長以傳統方法與細緻木桶陳年打造平衡優雅的 Reserva。酒款彰顯酒莊對細節的堅持：成熟果實、礦感與木桶香彼此呼應。 釀造與陳年：以長時間橡木陳年塑造層次，讓香草、椰香與辛香料融入酒體，同時保留明亮酸度。發酵與桶選講究，目標是既保有當年果香又能穩定陳年潛力。 葡萄園與風土：來自 Rioja Alta 較高海拔的園區，石灰質與黏土混合土壤，加上較涼爽的氣候，賦予酒款清爽的酸度與優雅的骨架。田間管理注重老藤與低產，果實成熟均衡。

Tasting Note: Juicy dried cherry and red-fruit core lifted by bright orange peel and citrusy acidity, layered with tea leaf, tobacco and gentle smoked-spice notes. Vanilla and subtle coconut oak weave through a silky midpalate, finishing long and focused. Producer Notes: From La Rioja Alta S.A., a historic house founded in 1890 and regarded among Rioja’s finest. This Reserva expresses the house’s traditional style—balanced oak influence, poised acidity and refined structure—designed to be approachable now yet rewarding with a few years of bottle time. Winemaking Notes: Matured as a Reserva with extended oak ageing that integrates spice and creamy vanilla tones without overwhelming the fruit. Fermentation and careful barrel selection retain freshness while providing a polished, classical profile. Vineyard Notes: Sourced from Rioja Alta vineyards on higher, cooler sites where soils give freshness and lift. Old-vine parcels and attentive viticulture produce concentrated fruit with the structure to age gracefully.
