Highly perfumed aromas of red and blue fruit preserves, coconut, mocha and pungent flowers, plus a hint of pipe tobacco emerging with air. Sappy and broad on the palate, offering sweet cherry-vanilla, spicecake and cola flavors and a hint of smokiness. Closes smooth, spicy and long, with lingering smokiness and fine-grained tannins adding subtle grip. Aged for two years in American oak barrels.

That said, it’s classic Urbina house style: all that red note, vegetal, dry mulch and cedar forest cold air perfume. There’s tobacco with clovey woodiness, licorice and orris root, and earthiness both ‘shroomy and mineral. It’s delicious, savoury and rounded with lovely tea tannin stripes. \u003cstrong\u003eBodegas Urbina\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 generations of Urbinas have managed this property since the 1870s. Urbina make ‘classically styled’ Rioja (Gran Reservas and the like with regular racking and so forth) from their own vines and are a village-specific producer, with their best wines all from the cold limestone sand soils of Cuzcurrita del Rio Tiron, west of Haro in the Ojo-Tiron Valley under Montes Obarenes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rioja Alta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tempranillo, Mazuelo, Graciano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pedro Urbina \u0026amp; Jesus Angel Urbina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sustainable Farming \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Perth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47579663859861,"sku":"3319","price":107.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260186.jpg?v=1784776559","url":"https:\/\/theheritageperth.com.au\/products\/urbina-reserva-especial-rioja-2006","provider":"The Heritage Perth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
