Bodegas Beronia Rioja Reserva 2020
| Category | Red Wine |
| Brand | Bodegas Beronia |
Beronia Reserva is made from a selection of the best grapes from the oldest Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo vineyards. After a slow and careful controlled fermentation with periodic pumping over to extract the desired color and aromas, it remains for 18 months in mixed American and French oak barrels, achieving a slow and harmonious evolution. It completes its ageing for another 18 months in the bottle before being released to the market.
Of an intense picota cherry color. Complex nose with aromas of black fruits, where blackberry stands out, and great harmony of spices such as cinnamon. Sweet, with a sweet and round tannin that blends well the acidic fruit with the wood. It is fresh, structured, with great complexity and a long aftertaste.

Subtle sweet spices and vanilla complement the red berries, plums and citrus. It has a medium body, with linear, firm tannins and a long, juicy finish. Balance is key here.

A harmonious version, with a deep underpinning of smoke and warm spices buoying concentrated flavors of cassis and baked cherry fruit, tea rose, thyme and licorice. The sculpted tannins are finely integrated, providing a limber yet structured feel to the lingering, spiced finish. Tempranillo, Mazuelo and Graciano. Drink now through 2030. 50,000 cases made, 3,500 cases imported.
