Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2019 Grandes Lindes de Remelluri Viñedos de San Vicente de la Sonsierra is a new wine produced with grapes from grower Jesusa Areta, who is mentioned on the label. This is a sprout from the Linder project and range for exceptional vineyards that deserve to be bottled separately. In this case, they have bottled this wine since 2011 but never released it until now. They fermented the 3,000 kilos of grapes from very old vines in an oak vat with indigenous yeasts and matured the wine in a mixture of barriques and foudres for 12 to 15 months. The wine is surprisingly elegant, very floral and balanced, ethereal but with weight. It's a delicate, complex and rare Rioja with a very special taste. It's exceptional. 2,993 bottles were filled in July 2021

Description
The wine Grandes Lindes de Remelluri comes from very old vineyards located in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, cultivated by local winegrowers. This wine is a tribute to Jesusa Areta, a dedicated winegrower from the region. The grape varieties that make up this wine are Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo.
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts in wooden vats. The ageing is carried out in barrels and casks of different sizes for a period of 12 to 15 months. This traditional winemaking process guarantees the preservation of the authentic flavours and the high quality of the wine.
Taste
Grandes Lindes de Remelluri has a complex and elegant nose, with notes of ripe red fruits such as raspberries, strawberries and cherries, complemented by spicy and undergrowth aromas. On the palate, the wine is balanced and structured, with very elegant tannins. The texture is silky and concentrated, with nuances of delicate marzipan, liquorice and hints of smooth chocolate. The finish is long and persistent, offering a taste experience that surprises and delights for its intensity and refinement.
This wine is a true jewel of La Rioja, capable of capturing the essence of the artisan work of local winegrowers and the passion for traditional viticulture. With a limited production of 2,993 bottles, Grandes Lindes de Remelluri is a tribute to the dedication and effort of those who have preserved these exceptional vineyards over time.
