Aged in 18-month oak barricas in French oak, this is the source of the great elegance shown by Medrano Irazu Reserva 2020, a Rioja red made entirely from Tempranillo grapes. The winery opts for a classic production, designed to shape a reserve with a serene and well-defined style, with the right level of maturity contributed by the oak without losing the hallmark of the variety.
The grapes from which Medrano Irazu Reserva 2020 is born come from vineyards located in Laguardia and Elvillar, two Rioja sites with a long viticultural tradition. That provenance helps explain the wine's character, combined with careful ageing that seeks balance and harmony. Medrano reinforces with this wine its profile as a winery tied to the terroir and to a faithful interpretation of Rioja.
Medrano Irazu Reserva 2020 is particularly well suited to pairing with oxtail.
