Eugénie de Montijo, the last Empress of France thanks to her marriage to Napoleon III, would surely be proud of this wine, a product of the vineyards that used to belong to her. It may be the second wine of the Hermanos Hernaiz winery but many Rioja producers can only hope that their first wines be as fresh and elegant as El Jardín de la Emperatriz (the Empress's garden).
It has already won the top critics over with its very first vintage, receiving 93 points from James Suckling, 91 from Luis Gutiérrez for Robert Parker, and 91 points in the Guía Peñín wine guide, where it has also been awarded five stars for its excellent value for money.
