An absolutely classic Reserva Rioja by one of the most reliable and longest-established producers, this is a wonderful wine to drink on release or to lay down.
94/100 2017 was not an easy harvest, but it produced some beautiful and classical wines, like the 2017 Viña Ardanza Reserva, which shows a little more advancement and polish and is ready to drink. It was produced with 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha from their vineyard La Pedriza in Tudelilla. It fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and matured in American oak barrels, 36 months for the Tempranillo and 30 for the Garnacha (that was harvested 15 days later), with six rackings. It's ripe and aromatic, tertiary, with 14.5% alcohol and mellow acidity, a medium-bodied palate and sleek tannins. It has a pungent note of clove and pepper, some licorice and ink and the cherries in liqueur from the Garnacha. An updated classical Ardanza. 600,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2021. - Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate

Full-bodied, sumptuous red; fresh bright red fruit and well-integrated oak; fine structure.
Vinã Ardanza is an outstanding Reserva with 20% Garnacha added to the Tempranillo.
Made by the venerable Rioja producer La Rioja Alta, this sees three years in old oak barrels.
This is very good when released, but can reward careful cellaring for many years.
La Rioja Alta recommend this with Iberian ham and sausages.
