Bodegas Proelio 2016 Rioja Reserva
All the virtues of the Crianza are present also in the Reserva, with the added authority deriving from the 50 – 80 year-old vines which give rise to it from several plots grown above 600 meters. The aging in French barriques, of which a modest proportion are new, is discreet and effective.
