Solar de Becquer Rioja Gran Reserva 750 ML

Wine Spectator called the 2010 Rioja harvest the “best in 50 years.” Wine Advocate has never rated a Rioja vintage higher. All that buzz spawned a buying frenzy, and now perfectly preserved, winery-direct 2010 Reservas are extremely difficult to find—at any price. On a trip to Spain, our Master Sommelier Sur Lucero scored an unbelievable library value from that outstanding season: a Rioja Reserva that shows the power of the vintage and the magic that occurs with nearly fifteen years of cellar age. Grown on 65-year-old vines, hand-harvested and sorted, this is savory and earthy, showing lively fruit and layers of complexity.
