Lorea Reserva 2022 stands out for its classic profile and its careful ageing. Produced by Consejo de la Alta in Cenicero, in the heart of Rioja Alta, it comes from a coupage of Tempranillo, Garnacha and Graciano, with 18 months in barrels of American and French oak. Its high quality has been recognised with a Gold Medal at Mundus Vini.
The grapes come from vineyards grown in Rioja Alta and Alavesa, in an area marked by the region’s identity and viticulture attentive to origin. The production, limited and very carefully tended, reinforces the character of a wine conceived from balance and fidelity to its provenance.
Consejo de la Alta is a small winery that has made quality and authenticity its way of working. In Lorea Reserva 2022 you can see that philosophy: a patient production, without artifices, that highlights know-how and the most recognisable expression of Rioja.
Pairing
Lorea Reserva 2022 goes wonderfully with dishes such as grilled Iberian presa or verdinas with oxtail.
