1998 Bodegas Riojanas Vina Albina Gran Reserva Rioja
Bodegas Riojanas, S.A. was founded in 1890 by several of Cenicero's old families who possessed a long-standing wine-making tradition and a large number of vineyards in the township. The proprietors have been winegrowers, producers and exporters from the beginning and some of the best vineyards in Rioja Alta and Alavesa. Although their most prized grape is the Tempranillo, a high quality red varietal which is the undisputed king of Spanish wine production. Mazuelo and Graciano is used to blend with the Tempranillo to create classically styled reds and Viura and Malvasía are used for the white wine production. Since its foundation, the elegant bodega located on the main street in Cenicero has undergone eight extentions to keep up with production and modernization over the years. Vinos Unico Importer

Grape Varieties: 80% Tempranillo Spain's principal native red grape, used in Spain's best wines often as a blending component, it has long aging potential,
15% Mazuelo aka Carignan in France and Cariñena in others areas of Spain, a variety that produces robust, well-balanced wines and 5% Graciano A small, tough skinned variety, it adds tremendous finesse and ageing capability to a blend.
