Bodega Roda Reserva Rioja is an exceptional wine from the world-famous Rioja wine region in Spain. This wine is produced by Bodega Roda, a renowned winery known for its commitment to quality and craftsmanship. This Reserva Rioja is composed of 86 percent Tempranillo, 8 percent Garnache, and 6 percent Graciano. The vines are at least 30 years old. What makes this wine truly special is the perfect balance between tradition and innovation. Bodega Roda strives to express the unique characteristics of the terroir and the grapes while simultaneously applying modern techniques to create a wine of unparalleled quality.

An ambitious and unprecedented adventure in Rioja

In the 1980s, a new generation innovated the wine industry. In the form of Mario Rotllant and Carmen Daurella, they arrived in La Rioja with the firm intention of creating a project capable of bringing something new to the world of winemaking. This is where an ambitious, powerful, and unprecedented adventure began: Bodegas Roda. The winery is situated on the banks of the Ebro River. The winegrowers used it to store their harvests, which would then be shipped by train to Bordeaux to mitigate the damage caused by phylloxera. Today, the winery is known for its high-quality red wines.

Completely hand-harvested for this Bodega Roda Reserva

As with all wines from the Roda estate, the grapes are harvested by hand. They then undergo a rigorous selection process to ensure the finest juice. Alcoholic fermentation then takes place in French oak barrels, followed by malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels. The wine then matures for fourteen months in French oak barrels, forty percent of which are new and sixty percent second-hand. Finally, the Reserva matures in bottle for another thirty months before it is ready to drink. Because, well, good quality requires patience.

The wonderful aroma of Bodega Roda Reserva Rioja

And finally, we have a beautiful red wine, with a very complex aroma, but one that promises much. Plenty of dark fruit, vanilla, and a hint of pepper. The powerful flavor reveals many notes of vanilla, spice, pepper, and black fruit, with plenty of blackberry. The finish is absolutely superb, a truly wonderful glass! It's a wine that ages beautifully and can develop further in the bottle, giving it the potential to reveal even more complexity and depth. Bodega Roda Reserva Rioja is an excellent choice for Rioja lovers and anyone seeking an exquisite Spanish wine experience.
