Faustino I Gran Reserva Rioja DOC
From the heart of Spain’s Rioja region, Faustino I Gran Reserva is a classic expression of traditional winemaking, crafted by Bodegas Faustino with a blend of Graciano, Mazuelo, and Tempranillo grapes. Aged to perfection, it pours a deep ruby color with garnet highlights and exudes a rich bouquet of dark berries, tobacco, and vanilla, layered with subtle spice and leather. Each bottle reflects over 150 years of heritage and a commitment to excellence that has made Faustino I one of the most recognized Rioja Gran Reservas in the world.
On the palate, this full-bodied red delivers generous flavors of ripe plum and black cherry, balanced by earthy undertones and smooth, integrated tannins. Its 14% alcohol content is well-structured within a long, velvety finish that lingers with grace. The result is a wine of depth and harmony, designed for those who appreciate aged elegance and refined character.
Ideal at a serving temperature of 16 to 18°C, Faustino I Gran Reserva pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, game meats, pork, or strong cheeses. Best enjoyed from a 0.75 L bottle, whether opened for a special dinner or tucked into a cellar, this Rioja elevates any meal with its timeless sophistication and layered complexity.
