Tasting notes
Aroma
Presents a beautifully evolved, complex bouquet of dried wild cherry and crushed plum, seamlessly interwoven with classic mature notes of worn leather, cured tobacco, vanilla bean, and a dusting of cinnamon.
Palate
A masterclass in traditional Rioja elegance. The palate delivers a profoundly silky, medium-bodied core of earthy red fruit and dried fig, entirely smoothed out by nearly two decades of age. The tannins are fully resolved and powdery, gliding effortlessly into a long, savory finish accented by white pepper and cedar.

Product Description
A historic, ready-to-drink Spanish masterpiece.
In the world of fine wine, 2009 is a massively important milestone for Rioja—and specifically for the legendary Granja Nuestra Señora de Remelluri.
It was the exact year visionary winemaker Telmo Rodríguez returned to his family's estate and made a radical decision: he completely stopped buying grapes from outside growers for this flagship wine. He restricted the Reserva entirely to the estate’s own historic, high-altitude vineyards.
The result was a watershed moment for modern Spanish wine, yielding a 2009 Reserva that critics immediately recognized as a classic. Today, 17 years after the harvest, we are unlocking a pristine library allocation straight from the estate's cellar.
While a 17-year-old First Growth Bordeaux or Grand Cru Burgundy with perfect provenance would easily command hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars, aged Rioja remains the ultimate collector's loophole. At just $75, you are securing a beautifully mature, silken, and complex European red that is perfectly in its drinking window right this second.
