Classic among the classics, Contino Reserva is one of those wines that needs little introduction. It comes from hand-selected grapes from the Finca de San Rafael, which, after destemming, fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine then matured in used French and American oak barrels for two years. Before release, it was further refined for one year in bottle, resulting in a delicate ruby color with tawny edges and an exceptional nose of red fruits and vanilla. On the palate, it is warm, silky, and harmonious, befitting a wine of its category. The intense fruit aromas blend with the toasted and spicy notes of the barrel, creating a broad and flavorful ensemble. The finish is round and balanced.
