Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Grandes Lindes de Remelluri Jesús Areta San Vicente de la Sonsierra, the wine they have been producing since 2011, was produced with Tempranillo, Graciano and other grapes from old plants at 519 to 557 meters above sea level, 1.08 hectares of 89-year-old vines that have belonged to the family for five generations. It's a vineyard they like very much and wanted to preserve. In fact, it was the beginning of the Lindes project. It fermented in oak vats with indigenous yeasts and matured in barrels and foudres of different sizes for 14 months. It has contained ripeness and 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.92 and 4.17 grams of acidity, and it comes through as fine-boned and elegant with some Rhône-like notes of violets. 2,507 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2022.

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.
