Bodegas Hermanos Pecina 2014 Gran Reserva Rioja 750ml

The image of Gran Reserva Riojas isn’t what it used to be, thanks to many under-performing examples in the market, but this is definitely the real deal. Featuring the typical Hermanos Peciña mix of Tempranillo with 3% Garnacha and 2% Graciano, it's a subtle, graceful, nuanced blend with savoury tannins, bright acidity, undertones of leather and patisserie spices and succulent red berry fruit.
