General information

The 2015 harvest exceeds the two previous harvests in quantity. The year has passed with a favorable climate, resulting in a vegetative cycle that allows a good vintage to be expected. Both the summer months and the time of harvesting have been marked by more rain than expected. Once again, the preventive treatments carried out in our vineyards, such as thinning of clusters and defoliation, have allowed us to obtain a quality grape.

The optimal time to carry out the harvest is at its beginning on September 23 with white and its continuation with ink until it ends with good prospects on October 22.

Tasting notes Imperial reserve

Intense cherry color layer with beautiful purple reflections. Attractive aroma of berries, violets and licorice with memories of the Atlantic forest where notes of clove and cigar leaf also appear. In the mouth we are struck by its softness and finesse. On the tour we appreciate meatiness and volume, all in perfect balance with a silky tannin that makes us reach a long and balsamic aftertaste where the aromas intermingle to make this wine have elegance and personality and can pair perfectly with fish.

General information

Bodegas Riojanas controls more than 300 hectares. Of the best vineyards in Cenicero, San Vicente de la Sonsierra and nearby towns. The grape that is par excellence harvested in Rioja is Tempranillo, but Bodegas Riojanas also has one of the largest extensions dedicated to Mazuelo and Graciano within the Denomination, varieties that give the wines it produces a greater personality. The different vineyard plots are located on clay-calcareous soils, of Miocene origin, suitable for producing the highest qualities. In early October, once the heat of summer has passed, the harvest takes place, which is more than just simple harvesting the grapes. The choice of the optimal time for harvesting, the productivity of the vines, the selection of the grape consignments destined to elaborate the different types of wine from the winery ... Everything will influence the characteristics and final quality of the wines obtained. The grape consignments from old vineyards are collected in boxes, to prevent the pressure produced by the weight from breaking the grape grains and arriving in the best conditions at the winery. Once there, they undergo a meticulous manual selection bunch by bunch, thus producing the wines that constitute the maximum exponent of quality at Bodegas Riojanas.

General information

Effort, tenacity, passion for things well done and a clear philosophy oriented to the vineyard. Four are the generations that have written the history of our family, "Familia Luis Cañas". For more than a century, our family has been engaged in the production and sale of traditional young wines made by the carbonic maceration method (whole bunches). These were made in the Cueva de los Curas, an old winery dug into the ground and which is still part of the landscape of the area today. In the past, wines were transported by Carlos Cañas, father of Luis Cañas (now 90 years old), in mule-drawn carts crossing the Sierra Cantabria and the Montes de Vitoria to areas bordering Bilbao and San Sebastián, more than 100 kilometers from Villabuena.

Tasting Notes Luis Cañas reserve
