• This is garnacha softened right off by being kept in lovely oak barrels for years. Gently seductive.
• Amazing find - Gran Reserva quality for such a belting price
• In Rioja, this quality level is usually well north of £10

We Say...

On a trip to Spain we discovered the amazing work of Victor Porter. With this wine you'll find the well executed combination of Spain's ancient winemaking history and Valencia's thriving modern winemaking technology. The result? Structure and complexity you'd expect to find in a Rioja Gran Reserva plus the soft fruitiness of a wine far younger in style. We very soon became addicted to this little number.

Gerry

quite smokey and oaky, once warmed up and had chance to breathe there is lots of black cherry, vanilla and toffee

Edward

A nice rioja but not particularly memorable

Richard

I really did not enjoy. It was bitter and we actually chilled it in the fridge to ge rid of the strong flavour of the unbalanced tannins

Adam

Its OK. A little bit juicy and quite smooth drinking. Probably wouldn't buy again though.

The Wine Maker Says...

Name: Victor Porter Vineyard: Bodega La Vina-Anecoop Country: Spain

After some years travelling around the world I think that finally I have found one of the most interesting places to make my wines, a place that has a perfect combination between tradition ( wine has been done in the area since III b.c)and modernity (here in the area I have the the most modern technology and most open minded producers I have ever work with).
I really hope you will enjoy my Valencian wines as much as I have enjoyed making them)..

In this wine , I have tried to combine the tradition of the gran reservas from Rioja with the modernity and cheeriness character of the Mediterranean people. So in this wine I have combined the spicy notes of the barriques with the typical cinnamon and forest fruits flavours of the Tempranillo grapes. Making a complex but soft and easy to drink Gran Reserva wine.
