We check multiple rating platforms for every wine where accessible: Vivino, Wine-Searcher, Wine Spectator, Decanter, James Suckling, Robert Parker Wine Advocate. Only verified scores matching the offered vintage or NV are shown and included.

Ratings are shown from 3.7/5 only when at least one contributing source confirms 10 reviews for this exact vintage or NV. Counts from different platforms are not added together.

5 exact platform scores are weighted equally. Native 99- and 100-point scales are normalized from 50→1 to their own maximum→5 (99→5 or 100→5); display and filtering use one decimal. Aggregator and critic-platform scores can partly overlap.

Description

La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 890 2011 is the estate's most exclusive classic cuvée and is produced only in exceptional years. Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo mature for six years in American oak and then spend several more years in bottle before release.

Candied plum, cherry and raisin are framed by cedar, tobacco, leather, vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate and balsamic nuances. The palate is broad and intense, with silky tannins, lively freshness and an exceptionally long, spicy finish.

A monumental Gran Reserva for special occasions and further cellaring. Pair with roast lamb, game, slow-cooked beef or mature sheep's-milk cheese.
