Winemaker Notes
An unctuous, mouth-filling attack. As it passes over the palate fresh, but well-rounded tannins appear recalling flavours of black tea, as in the nose. The aftertaste is elegant, fine and lengthy, with complex, slightly mineral flavours. With more bottle time it will continue to grow in intensity and complexity.
About Winery
Valserrano, also known as Viñedos y Bodegas de la Marquesa, is a family-owned winery with a long history in Rioja Alavesa. Founded in 1880, it has been continuously managed by the same family for five generations. The winery's roots trace back to Francisco Javier Solano y Eulate, Marqués de la Solana, who, inspired by French winemaking techniques, began producing Médoc-style wines in the late 19th century. Today, Juan Pablo de Simón, his great-grandson, leads the winery, and his children are actively involved in the business.
