Bought from the private cellar of a Riojan retired wine distributor in June 2012. Stored in a private cellar up to today. Exceptional storage conditions. Fully mature and therefore drinking well now, or cellar for the next 20-25 years years. This is a wine to cellar for years!! 1970 is one of the best vintages in La Rioja. The owners decided to produce the top brands (890 Grva, 904 Grva). Vinified and matured in wooden vat, from the founding time of the winery (1890), and then aged in cask for 7 years. Racked 12 times, once every 6 months, using the traditional cask-to-cask Riojan method. Hand bottled directly from the barrel in 1979. Not filtered. *** All international parcels are shipped with the highest standards of quality: through the premium “UPS International Express”, the fastest service against signature provided by the courier.
