Familia Monje Amestoy Luberri Rioja Gran Reserva

"Florentino Martínez Monje, the incredible force behind Luberri, is a jovial and mercurial spirit with a heart the size of Rioja. He is also a serious winemaker, a self-made cosechero who is so talented he often makes his craft look easy. In reality, Florentino is one of the most respected farmers in Rioja because he grew up in the vineyards and understands his landscape better than almost anyone alive."-De Maison Selections

"Luberri Gran Reserva is made from two of their oldest vineyards of 80-to-90 year-old
tempranillo: Carrapaganos and Rehoyos from 460-600m, both located in the heart of Rioja
Alavesa, near the village of Laguardia. Old, goblet-trained tempranillo vines face north
in these vineyards, with the picturesque Sierra Cantabria mountains in the background.
Carrapaganos consistently gives fruit with incredible structure and finesse, while Rehoyos
yields plush, luxurious wines with excellent fruit depth. Luberri combines the two in the best
vintages to produce their classic Gran Reserva."-De Maison Selections
