Viña Arana Gran Reserva 2017
Descrizione
Nel 2019,Rioja Alta S.A. ha lanciato questo vino, che è diventato il successore del vecchio Viña Arana Reserva e completa la sua prestigiosa gamma di vini di lunga invecchiamento composta da Gran Reserva 890 e Gran Reserva 904. Viña Arana Gran Reserva è fresco, intenso e con un grande potenziale di invecchiamento. Un vino da gustare e da capire la tipicità di un classico della Rioja. Come dice il suo creatore, Julio Sáenz: "con l'elegante e moderno classicismo dei 'vini di Haro'. Un'annata che svilupperà in bottiglia la finezza e la tipicità dei grandi vini della Rioja".

Deep, savory nose of vanilla, mussels, graphite, iron and black pepper. Vibrant and juicy, with a medium to full body and fine-grained tannins. Lots of energy, with a long, long finish. 95% tempranillo and 5% graciano. Still quite young. Drink or hold. - Zekun Shuai, Senior Editor.
The 2017 Viña Arana Gran Reserva, produced with Tempranillo and a kick from 5% Graciano (not with Mazuelo like in the past) from the Montecillo estate in Fuenmayor. The destemmed and crushed grapes were previously selected by an optical machine and fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts for 16 days. The wine matured in American oak barrels for three years, during which time it was racked six times, keeping the two varieties separate, then blending them before the bottling operation. The wine feels closed and took time in the glass to start opening up, showing quite young and undeveloped. It's quite monolithic, solid and seamless, but it has not developed the complexity and nuance of other wines here. It has good ripeness, 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.66 and five grams of acidity. It was bottled in January 2022.
Julio Sáenz calls Arana 2017 "a starter Gran Reserva" and I don't think he's damming it with faint praise. Showing the concentration of the frost-affected 2017 vintage, this is a leafy, scented, structured cuvèe of Tempranillo and 5% Graciano with balsamic complexity, vanilla and cinnamon sweetness and plenty of supporting acidity. 2025-38.
Fabulously classic gran reserva with coconut and vanilla sweet oak, match by intense red berry fruits. The tannins are soft and perfectly integrated, and the palate is fresh and juicy. A classic.

El vino es un gran reserva decente pero con la volátil por las nubes no se aguantará mucho más en botella
Rico vino. Tampoco wow, pero equilibrado.
muy alejado del viña ardanza
Es como volver a casa y que mamá te suba en brazos y te dé besos. ESA felicidad.
Baste decir que supera al Viña Ardanza, con mucho menos precio
