Producer: Fincas de Ganuza represents one of Rioja's most innovative and quality-focused estates, founded by Eduardo Eguren who revolutionised Spanish winemaking through his meticulous attention to detail and commitment to expressing terroir. 

Located in Rioja Alavesa, the estate benefits from carefully selected vineyard sites with ideal expositions and the subregion's distinctive clay-limestone soils that create perfect conditions for premium Tempranillo cultivation.

The bottle demonstrates Eguren's pioneering approach to Spanish winemaking, including innovative techniques such as cold pre-fermentation maceration and the use of specially designed conical fermentation tanks. The Reserva designation requires extended ageing in both oak and bottle, resulting in wines of remarkable concentration and elegance that showcase Fincas de Ganuza's position as one of Spain's most celebrated modern producers.

The 2017 Reserva Vintage showcases the estate's dedication to producing exceptional wines that honour Rioja's traditions whilst embracing modern techniques to achieve unprecedented levels of quality and complexity.
