Heiner Lobenberg über:
Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial 2017

95
/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

Suckling über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Suckling: Complex and pretty profound nose with tapenade, savory mussels, dark mineral and a fine twist of spiciness and piquancy to the dark cherries here. Just a hint of vanilla. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate, showing excellent intensity, juiciness and firmness. Long, ripe and really balanced. Drink or hold. 95/100

Tim Atkin über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Tim Atkin: The Viña Real Gran Reserva is more open than the Reserve bottling, possibly because of the warmer vintage in 2017. Tempranillo provides the core here, with support from 5% Graciano, with ageing in a mixture of 40% new French and American oak. Violet and vanilla perfumed, with chalky intensity and good underlying structure and backbone. 94/100

Parker über: Rioja Vina Real Gran Reserva Especial

-- Parker: The 2017 Viña Real Gran Reserva is a classical Rioja Alavesa blend of 95% Tempranillo with 5% Graciano from their own vineyards. It matured in new and used barrels for two years and was racked every four months and no less than three in bottle. It has 13.95% alcohol, a pH of 3.54 and six grams of acidity. This is a textbook Gran Reserva; perhaps this year it shows a faster evolution, with notes of olives, with hints of mint, ripe but with acidity. It has a polished palate with fine-grained tannins and a very pleasant tactile sensation. It's ready but should also last. 30,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2020. 94/100

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.
