AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This lot contains 6 bottles of Faustino Rioja Gran Reserva 2016.
Faustino I Gran Reserva 2016: a true classic from Bodegas Faustino in Rioja. This iconic Gran Reserva is crafted only in exceptional years, aged with care in French and American oak for 26 months, then matured in the bottle for at least 3 years before release.
The 2016 vintage offers a deep ruby core with mature brown-tinged edges, suggesting its careful evolution.
On the nose, expect a refined bouquet of stewed dark fruit — plums and cherries — layered with warm spice, vanilla, tobacco, and toffee. On the palate, it is structured yet elegant, with integrated tannins, black and forest fruits, and a long, concentrated finish.
Ratings:
94/100 by James Suckling
Gold at the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles 2025
Gold at the International Wine Challenge 2025
Serve this Gran Reserva at around 16–18 °C, ideally after a brief decanting to allow its aromas to open up. It pairs beautifully with:
- Grilled or roasted red meats (think rib-eye steak, lamb chops)
- Game or rich stews
- Aged cheeses with character
This wine is also stunning on its own, truly a centerpiece for memorable dinners or special occasions.
The bottles will be shipped to you in a secure, protective packaging. No shipping outside the EU (Norway, Iceland, Spanish Islands,...).
