2011 Faustino Reserva Especial Icon Edition 0,75 Liter

Faustino Reserva Especial Icon Edition 2011, crafted in Spain’s Rioja, is a Tempranillo-driven blend with Graciano from the estate’s limestone and clay terroir. The bouquet unveils blackberry, cassis, and dark cherry, with notes of spice, vanilla, and subtle oak, accented by hints of minerality. The palate is full-bodied and harmonious, with velvety tannins and vibrant acidity balancing the concentrated fruit. Aged in American and French oak, this wine delivers a refined, lingering finish with good aging potential. Perfect for pairing with roasted lamb, cured meats, or aged cheeses, it reflects Faustino’s traditional winemaking, offering a sophisticated experience for Rioja enthusiasts seeking a robust red. Its richness and balance make it a standout from the 2011 vintage, embodying Rioja Alavesa’s iconic terroir.
