Faustino Rioja Icon Edition Especial Seleccion Reserva

Faustino Rioja Icon Edition Especial Seleccion Reserva

The Faustino Icon Edition Especial Seleccion Reserva is a prestigious Rioja red wine crafted by the renowned Bodegas Faustino in Oyón, Spain. This intense, cherry-red blend typically features a dominant proportion of Tempranillo (around 90-95%) balanced with Graciano, harvested by hand and aged in French oak barrels followed by significant bottle aging. The aromatic profile is complex, offering notes of ripe forest fruits, blackberries, and blueberries layered with spicy undertones, vanilla, and balsamic nuances. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, structured, and elegant, characterized by well-integrated tannins and a long, refined finish. This versatile Reserva pairs exceptionally well with robust dishes such as roasted lamb, duck breast, braised chicken, and medium-aged cheeses.
