About Faustino I Gran Reserva 75 Aniversario

Faustino I Gran Reserva 75 Aniversario is a red wine from the Rioja D.O. region. This wine is produced by the Bodega Faustino as a homage to the president of the winery, Julio Faustino Martínez. The winery is based in Ovón (Álava) and has over 150 years of experience behind in the development of premium wines.

This wine is is made with Tempranillo from the 650 hectares of vineyards that lies in the Rioja Alavesa, between Laguardia and Ovón. The climate of the zone is mediterranean with a strong cantabrian influence. This zone also does not experience the cold winds from the north, since the Sierra de Cantabria acts as a natural barrier of protection.

After the harvest, the grapes undergo fermentation in tanks for a period of 21days. After, the must is place in barrels to peform malolactic fermentation.

Finally, Faustino I Gran Reserva 75 Aniversario ages in an American Oak barrel for 11 months and in a French oak barrel for 14, being racked 4 times during the ageing process.

2009 Faustino I Gran Reserva 75 Aniversario 2009 is a complex and mature red wine with structure. This magnificent vintage displays all the virtues of the great reserves, being expressive but calm on the nose, where the tertiary aromas stand out above the ripe red fruit. On the palate it is silky, pleasant and very lingering.
2005 Upon tasting, it reveals itself as vibrant, robust, and well-rounded. It boasts a sophisticated and intricate tannic expression. The finish is extended and tenacious.

The hue is a deep cherry, clear and luminous.

The olfactory experience unveils a vast array of scents: ripe fruit, balsamic notes, spices, and leather.
2004 Fresh, powerful and round palate. Complex and elegant tannins. Broad, long and persistent aftertaste.

Intense picota cherry colour with maroon iridescences. Medium-high robe. Clean and bright.

This wine's ageing, both in the barrel and in the bottle, have resulted in a very aromatic nose boasting a range of nuances: balsamic, spices, leather and touches of ripe fruit.
