Corral Gran Reserva 1976 - 750ml

Tasting Notes

Pale garnet at its centre with flecks of bronze at the rim. Nuanced aromas rise gently being reminiscent of the forest in autumn. Within 30 minutes the aromas develop across a range of autumn fruits, spice and slow baked plum. The light tannins are now part of a dry savoury structure. A rare, delicate Rioja from an important year in Spanish history.

Winemaker Notes

To celebrate the upcoming 50 years of the ‘new’ Don Jacobo winery in Navarrete, the Corral family have released four rare vintages from the 1970s, Gran Reserva wines that have lain untouched for decades in the winery cellars since bottling. Made traditionally and evocative of a different era, these fully mature wines defy their age and show great charm and character, each bottle being a piece of living history.

This is a rare opportunity to own bottles of long aged Rioja and the perfect gift for anyone turning 50 in the next few years.

Blend :  Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo (Carignan).
