Description
Rioja 2011Gran Reserva 904, La Rioja Alta
2ocb
Bottle (12)
Another tranche from The Resolution Collection. All wines purchased through natural distribution channels and stored in pristine temperature and humidity control.
"I usually prefer the 904 to the 890, but there will be no Gran Reserva 890 until the 2010 vintage (from the last vintage I tasted, 2005). So, the only one of the extended-aging Haro-style reds I tasted this time was the 2011 Gran Reserva 904, which had a hard act to follow after the 2010 vintage. It's a blend of 89% Tempranillo and 11% Graciano matured in American oak barrels for four years, and it was racked eight times from barrel to barrel during its élevage, which sounds a bit harsh for a vintage like 2011 when the wines were not as complete and robust as in 2010. It has the classic profile, aromas and flavors (decayed leaves, tobacco, sweet spices, a meaty touch and some black fruit), but the oak seems to take a more leading role and the palate feels less juicy. It finishes dry." (94 pts. Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, Oct. 2020)
