Description of Remirez de Ganuza Reserva
Remirez de Ganuza Reserva is one of the winery's flagship wines. A Reserva made only from the shoulders of bunches of grapes from vineyards with an average age of over 40 years. One of the keys of this wine is that in its blend we find 85% Tempranillo, 10% Graciano, and in the fermentation process we add 5% of Viura and Malvasía skins. The profile of Remiez de Ganuza Reserva is that of a Reserva with a balance and freshness that is difficult to achieve in some Reservas. A versatile Rioja that goes very well with both meat and fish, and especially well with spoon dishes and cured cheeses. And one of the Rioja Reservas most suitable for ageing.Ideal pairing
