Made of a blend of Tempranillo and Graciano, El Coto's Coto de Imaz Gran Reserva is a beautiful expression of the Rioja region in Spain. Aged 24 months in American and French oak barrels, followed by a minimum of 36 months of maturing in the bottle, this Gran Reserva is from a vineyard dating back to 1548.
Brilliant ruby color, with russet tones. Mature and elegant, its aromatic richness is changing and subtle, becoming more apparent as the wine breathes. Notes of toast and coconut followed by tertiary aromas (leather, earth), and red fruit and dried fruit. Round, silky tannins, persistent and complex aftertaste. Ideal accompaniment for roast suckling lamb, game, or red meat.

An elegant red, with a bright beam of cherry wrapped in a bow of vanilla and cedar. Shows a firm edge of tannins lining the long finish, but food or a few years of aging will take care of that. Fine balance and length. Tempranillo and Graciano. Drink now through 2032. 20,000 cases made, 3,000 cases imported.
