Obalo Reserva-2017

Obalo Reserva 2017 is a refined and expressive Rioja crafted primarily from Tempranillo and aged in oak to achieve depth, balance, and elegance. It opens with inviting aromas of ripe cherry, plum, vanilla, and subtle baking spices, layered with hints of leather and dried herbs.

On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and well-structured, delivering flavors of red and dark fruit framed by polished tannins and integrated oak. Notes of cocoa, spice, and gentle earthiness add complexity, while balanced acidity keeps the wine fresh and food-friendly. The finish is smooth, lingering, and classic in style.

This Reserva pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted lamb, mushrooms, aged cheeses, and savory Spanish dishes. A versatile, crowd-pleasing Rioja that offers both approachability and traditional character.
