2014 was an excellent vintage in the Rioja Alavesa and the fruit came into the winery in perfect condition. The Viña Del Oja Rioja Reserva is a blend of 90% Tempranillo with 5% each of Graciano and Mazuelo to add further depth and structure. A classic example of a traditional style of Rioja Reserva, Bodegas Señorío De Arana aged this wine in French and American oak for 18 months before allowing it to spend several years in the bottle to develop.
