Alonso & Pedrajo Suañé Tinto Reserva 2017 Bottle size: 750ml
Spain, Rioja
R615
‘The red 2017 Suañé Tinto Reserva was produced mostly with grapes from their main estate vineyard in Villalba de Rioja, from vines at 600+ meters in altitude, and some from Haro too. It was aged in used barrel for two years, looking for natural stabilization of the wine. It's medium-bodied and has medium ripeness at 13% alcohol and a pH of 3.55, which means good freshness. The destemmed but uncrushed grapes fermented in open concrete pools with indigenous yeasts. It's perfumed and floral, subtle and elegant, varietal and with a round and balanced palate that is juicy and makes you salivate, with fine-grained chalky tannins. A triumph over the adverse conditions of the year. 2022 – 2027.’ – Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, 93/100
