Brief Description

Tasting Notes

The aroma of Imperial Rioja is plumbs and vanilla, leading through to an intense palate of blackcurrands and sweet red berries. The finish is long with coffee, oak and spicy vanilla.

About

The grapes used for Imperial derive from CVNE's own vineyards in Villalba, Briones and Torremontalvo.

All these vineyards are older than 40 years with the main variety being Tempranillo.

However, other Rioja varieties, such as Garnacha and Graciano, are also found in these calcareous clay soils, and are used in small parts with Tempranillo to make Imperial Rioja Reserva.

The wines from each vinyard are matured seperately in oak before being brought together for bottling and resting.

Ideal with...

Beef, especially flame grilled steak. Same for lamb.
