El Coto Rioja Crianza

A classic Rioja that shows why American oak and Tempranillo go so well together: warm, structured, with a finish that lingers.

El Coto de Rioja is one of the most well-known houses in the region. The grapes for this Crianza come from the Rioja Alavesa — calcareous soils known for firmer, more mineral Tempranillo wines than the sandy sites of the Rioja Baja. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine ages for 12 to 14 months in American barrique barrels (225 l), followed by at least six more months in the bottle. MundusVini awarded a gold medal in 2019, James Suckling 90 points for the 2015 vintage.

In the glass, it shows aromas of dark cherry, plum, and vanilla, plus the typical coconut and woody spice of American oak. The tannins are softly integrated, the body is medium to full, the finish pleasantly long with a hint of roasted aromas.
