Tasting Notes

Elegant aromas of blackberry and dark fruit are laced with clove and cinnamon spice. Silky and medium-bodied, it offers velvety tannins, fresh integrated acidity and creamy vanilla notes alongside fruit on a very long finish.

Food Paring

Pair with braised meats, roast lamb, or rich casseroles to match its savory spice and texture. It is also wonderful with aged cheeses and roasted game birds.

Professional Reviews

"The expressive, complex and nuanced 2016 Prado Enea Gran Reserva is a textbook traditional Rioja in the making. 2016 was a very elegant year, with aging potential, volume and very good acidity and freshness. It's full-bodied but fine-boned, has 14.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.6 and 5.25 grams per liter acidity. It has terrific balance, with all the components in the right proportion to age superbly in bottle. They have also been working on the selection of wood used. This wine matured in French and American oak barrels for three years, and the oak is super integrated. 127,808 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2020. It was an exceptional year with volume and quality."
