Heiner Lobenberg über:
Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial 2016

/100

Lobenberg: Großer klassischer Stoff mit Dichte und Spannung. Neue Welt trifft alte Welt. Eher die Moderne in der alten Rioja-Welt interpretierend als dass man den Wein mit den Artadis, Ocers oder Telmo Rodriguez vergleichen kann. Aber in der alten Welt schon eine beachtliche Aufstellung! 95/100

Parker über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Parker: The extremely affordable 2016 Viña Real Gran Reserva Especial recovers the 'Especial' mention from the old Reserva Especial vintages from a very good year. It's a classical Rioja Alavesa blend of 95% Tempranillo with 5% Graciano from their own vineyards. It's open and expressive, with notes of berries, fresh blood and iron, orange peel and sweet spices with the oak still present and in need of some more time in bottle. The palate is medium-bodied and feels lean and serious, with abundant chalky tannins. This should be a classical vintage of this wine in the making. It matured in barrel for two years and no less than three in bottle. 30,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2019. 95/100

Suckling über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Suckling: Attractive nose of dark cherries, dill, thyme, coconut and chocolate. Some salted caramel, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, silky tannins and vibrant acidity. So balanced and fresh with a long, refined finish. 95% tempranillo and 5% graciano. Better from 2024. 95/100

Wine Enthusiast über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Wine Enthusiast: This dark ruby-colored wine offers a nose of black cherry, black currant, vanilla and anisette. Well balanced tannins and acidity support flavors of dark red berries, butterscotch, dark chocolate and a hint of violet. Luxurious tannins settle in and slowly dissolve into a lingering finish. 95/100

Tim Atkin über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Tim Atkin: This superb Gran Reserva is a cuvée of Tempranillo with 5% Graciano that showcases the Rioja Alavesa villages of Labastida and Laguardia. Partnering Tempranillo with 5% Graciano, it's refined, detailed and poised, with crunchy black fruit flavours, chalky acidity and minerality, violet aromas and perfumed French oak. Stylish, age-worthy stuff. 95/100

Mein Winzer

Bodegas Contino

Die Bodegas Contino liegt in Laserna auf Schwemmland mit viel Kalkeinsprengseln und Kieseln nahe des Ebro, in einer Flussschleife unterhalb Laguardias in der Rioja Alavesa, der vom Terroir und Mikroklima klar besten Region der Rioja und damit Spaniens.
