I am a farm wine made in limited production during the excellent harvest years. The Florentino Martínez family brings me to the world with the best Tempranillo grapes from their “Carasol Valdemerque” farm. They make me by the traditional method of de-stemmed grapes. Macero and ferment in tank for 25 days at controlled temperature. Two months later I am already sleeping in Rioja oak barrels, coming from the Distercios mountains, near the winery. My dream, with two racking, lasts 24 months. Finally I move to the glass where I rest and refine my bouquet for one, two or three years.Tasting Notes Distercio reserve
My appearance is an intense maroon color, with a good coat and cherry-colored trim. I release aromas of Rioja, red berries, licorice and spices of my dreams in wood. In the mouth I am fleshy, with persistent structure and tannin, fruit and toasted notes of good intensity. With the passage of time and a slight aeration you will enjoy more with me, always at a temperature around 17ºC.

Intense and lively cherry color. Clean and bright on the nose, its barrel notes stand out (smoked) that give way to ripe sour fruits (raspberries and strawberries). On the palate it has very good structure, notable acidity and good balance with a predominance of elegant toasted notes.
