This Rioja Crianza 2017 shows a vibrant, traditional Rioja profile: bright red cherry, dried strawberry, and hints of sweet spice. Subtle notes of vanilla, tobacco leaf, and earthy nuances add depth, while its balanced acidity and fine tannins deliver a smooth, elegant finish.

This 2017 Crianza is crafted primarily from Tempranillo, complemented by small proportions of Garnacha, Mazuelo, and Gracianoclassic varieties of the Rioja Alta region. Aged in oak and further refined in bottle before release, it offers a harmonious balance of fruit and gentle oak influence, making it ideal for both immediate enjoyment and short-term cellaring.

Lopez de Heredia, founded in 1877 in Haro, is one of Riojas most historic and revered producers. Known for its commitment to traditional methods, long aging, and meticulous craftsmanship, the winery consistently produces wines of remarkable character and authenticity. Vina Cubillo exemplifies their timeless approach and dedication to quality.
