General Information

Abelenda Reserva 2020 is the new vintage of an aged Rioja wine that is only produced in the best years. A Rioja exclusively designed for Vinoselección by Olarra, through a blend dominated by Tempranillo (90%), complemented by other traditional varieties such as Garnacha and Graciano. It is aged for 21 months in American oak barrels, with three rackings.

The wines of Bodegas Olarra stand out for their elegance, intensity, and sophistication. Founded in 1973 in Logroño, it features beautiful and unique facilities that have earned it the nickname ‘the cathedral of Rioja,’ with a Y-shaped layout and 111 hexagonal domes. Olarra combines the most modern winemaking techniques with traditional production and aging methods. In recent years, it has become one of the most highly regarded wineries in the D.O.Ca. Rioja, and its wines have accumulated an extensive list of awards.

This winery, acting as one of the driving forces behind Rioja wine, stands out for the significant qualitative leap it has made in recent years, blending the most modern winemaking techniques with the traditional methods of production and aging in Rioja, creating wines conceived according to strict quality standards.

Thus, Bodegas Olarra cultivates high-quality raw materials, sourced both from its own vineyards and through agreements with the best winegrowers in Rioja: approximately 1,300 hectares of vineyards. It also boasts extensive experience working with oak barrels to ensure its wines reach their fullest expression. Additionally, Olarra is distinguished by the beauty and complexity of its facilities, known as the cathedral of Rioja, unique for their Y-shaped layout and 111 hexagonal domes.
