Azpilicueta Reserva 2019 is an exquisite red wine hailing from the renowned Rioja region, expertly crafted by Bodegas Juan Alcorta. This elegant wine is made predominantly with Tempranillo grapes, complemented by Graciano and Mazuelo varietals, showcasing the rich terroir and winemaking tradition of the area.

Its alluring bouquet features delicate notes of vanilla and quince, inviting you to experience the complexity and finesse of this remarkable vintage. On the palate, it is smooth, silky, and remarkably persistent, characterized by an elegant structure and a well-balanced, rounded body.

This wine pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, making it an ideal companion for white and red meats, game, succulent roasted lamb, pork, or beef. It also complements poultry, mushrooms, and aged blue cheeses, elevating any meal to a gourmet experience. Enjoy Azpilicueta Reserva 2019 for an authentic taste of Spanish winemaking that will surely impress.
