1991. Very good.
Spring rains ensured the development of the vines during the first phases of the cycle. Ideal summer temperatures enabled the grapes to fully ripen, with the harvest taking place in mid-October.
The grapes came from a selection of the best parcels
with very low yields (3,800 kg/ha) in the Fuenmayor area of La Rioja.

Traditionally harvested by hand in the grape hods known as comportones.
Alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled (26-28ºC) stainless steel tanks, in which the wine macerated on its skins for more than 25 days.
Malolactic fermentation took place in underground concrete tanks.
Our Montecillo Gran Reserva Selección Especial 1991 was aged for 46 months in American and French oak barrels.
After bottling, the wine rested for a minimum of 15 months in the winery's underground cellars before its release.
An intense ruby-garnet color. The rim shows signs of development with orange tones.
Very intensely aromatic nose, with hints of resinous wood, touches of truffle, saline, and iodine notes. Aromas of dates and gamey notes appear over time. A very changeable and complex wine, which opens up to show new aromas when aerated.
On the palate it is smooth and agile, well structured, with a good level of acidity. Notes of stewed fruit, with mineral and earthy nuances, and a broad finish where the notes of fruit compote return in this fantastic wine.
