Notes on the Ochoa Gran Reserva 2000
A garnet red cherry colour with a coppery edge, this wine has a powerful heady aroma with the full expression of an elegant aged wine. On the palate, leather, spices and minerals come together with the fruit and harmonises with the integration of the oak. The perfect blend of Cabernet adds to its structure and depth along with balsamic flavours, liquorice, fine toasty notes and excellent acidity. A fine example of a Spanish Reserva.
