Renowned for producing “classical, reliable wines” according to Wine Advocate’s Luis Gutierrez, Beronia is a household name in overachieving Rioja value. Vintage after vintage, the estate delivers some of the best bang for the buck in all of Spain, attracting legions of fans who have made these wines into best-selling benchmarks over the years.
The 2019 Beronia Reserva is another well-crafted edition of this fan-favorite to add to its consistent track record of reliability. The profile is everything long-time fans know and love, immediately accessible and charming, "balanced, with polished tannins, berry character and a pleasant, longish finish," as James Suckling describes it. Made from Beronia’s oldest vines, the 2016 Beronia Gran Reserva also brings home the goods and then some. Aged over 28 months in French oak followed by three years in bottle prior to release to develop its trademark complexity and depth, the 2016 is a "lively red, with well-meshed, sculpted tannins" according to Wine Spectator.
It's a perfect pair to stock up on - the 2019 Reserva will stand out as your next go-to everyday winner, while the 2016 Gran Reserva will shine as an ultimate age-worthy value in your cellar for the next 15 years, all for some of the sharpest price in the market. |
