The Wine

Country of origin:

Spain

Region:

Valencia

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. Try this mellow blend with tapas.

The Winemaker

Victor Porter
Winemaker:

Victor Porter

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 most modern technology and most open-minded producers I have ever worked 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 cheerful character of the Mediterranean people. 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 oak-aged wine." - Victor Porter, Winemaker.
