Product Description
This exquisite 70% Tempranillo and 30% Graciano blend showcases rare old-vine Graciano, a nearly uprooted variety in the region. Crafted by Muga, the wine undergoes meticulous care, with 60% of the grape bunches discarded during green harvest to ensure optimal quality. Aged for 18 months in new Tronçais oak barrels and a minimum of 12 months in bottle, Aro (produced since 2000) boasts a deep, inky color with a purple rim. The nose unfolds with plum, black cherry, chocolate, and spice, while the palate delivers dense, ripe fruit, velvety yet firm tannins, and a long, muscular finish. Though already approachable, this bold, structured red wine promises excellent aging potential. Discover the refined power of this limited-production Rioja gem with its recently updated label design.
