DESCRIPTION
A very special reserve red wine for the winery made from our best grapes. It gives off aromas of noble woods, toasted, with balsamic and spicy touches. Very round and ripe tannins, perfectly balanced and delicate without lacking corpulence.
HISTORY
The history of our winery began in 1956, when a group of small winegrowers in the Lerín area, convinced of the potential of their vineyards, decided to join forces and create a project whose main objective was to produce quality wines. Sharing vineyards and using techniques handed down from father to son, they founded Bodegas Alconde, in a privileged area of Navarra.
TERRITORY
The vineyards of Bodegas Alconde are over 50 years old and sometimes reach a century of existence. The climate of the whole region is very suitable for grape ripening, with cold temperatures in winter and warm in summer. The soils are very poor, chalky with an abundance of boulders and very low yields. We make smooth, balanced and very elegant wines.
