Origin
This wine is from the superb 1978 vintage and has been stored in the cellars of the famous Bodega Riojanas for over 30 years. Recently filtered and re-corked to stabilise the wine, this is a rare opportunity to try a unique, mature Rioja at a bargain price.
Taste
Showing a complex nose of wild strawberry, leather and smoky spices, the palate is amazingly fresh with dried fruits, smoke and a long refreshing finish.
Enjoy
Enjoy this mature wine now, drinking with game dishes such as venison steak.

    Fantastic

    One of the best Riojas I have tasted for several years. Clear rim around the glass,very smooth and would keep even longer if you can resist the temptation to open it.

    i love it

    this is a remarkable wine,30 years old and in a dodgy 1970's label, nonetheless it tastes great and i reckon will last another few years yet. for a wine this age i think it's a steal!
