Contino Reserva Magnum - Red Wine

Contino Reserva Magnum - Red Wine is a reserve red wine from Contino, produced exclusively from the vineyards of the estate located in Laserna, in Laguardia, in the heart of Rioja Alavesa. Made mainly with Tempranillo (86%), complemented by Graciano and Mazuelo (6%) and Garnacha (2%), it expresses the classic and elegant profile of this renowned region.

In the glass, it presents a clean and bright ruby-red color with a medium layer. The aroma reveals great intensity, with notes of red berries, ripe fruit, hints of vanilla, spices, and wood, in a harmonious blend of freshness and depth. On the palate, it is ample and flavorful, with a rounded texture, remarkable balance, and a long, persistent finish.

The extended aging process contributes to its complexity and distinction: it ages for 24 months in barrels and then refines for another 2 years in the bottle. This process gives it structure, elegance, and gastronomic value, making it a safe choice for special occasions and for connoisseurs of great Rioja reds.

It is recommended to serve it between 16 and 18 ºC. It pairs very well with red meats, roast lamb, game, and aged cheeses.
