Winemakers Notes
This wine is produced from 80+ year-old vines of Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) that was planted in calcareous clay with abundant gravel in the surface using the traditional Gobelet system and aged for 30 months in New French oak barrels (Sylvain Reserve).
This wine combines power, balance, and elegance. It has a superior bouquet of plums, red and black cherries, cigar wrapper, notes of lavender, a fine base of soil and lovely spice framing of new oak. On the palate it is pure, ripe, full-bodied and outstanding mid-palate depth, well-integrated tannins, excellent focus and complexity with a very classy finish and a tremendous potential to age in bottle.

“The brilliant 2021 Isaac Fernandez ‘Reserva’ comes from 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), fro 80 year old vines planted in Gobelet. This is complex and delicious with mocha, tar and black licorice notes alongside smoky and salty nuances on the palate. Drink 2025-2033.”

“Juicy black cherry and purple fruit aromas are accented by sandalwood on the nose. On the palate, the wine shows initial smoothness but the tannins catch up quickly, creating the effect of everything happening at once.”
