Qvinto Arrio Gran Reserva 2012 is a beautifully mature, organically crafted Rioja from Bodegas Navarrsotillo. Long ageing has softened its tannins and layered the wine with rich red fruit, warm spice, cedar and silky depth. Classic in style, unbeatable in charm — a slow-crafted Rioja built for cosy dinners and quiet celebrations.
A decade in bottle has shaped this into a refined, complex, beautifully mellow Gran Reserva. Expect aromas of dried cherry, blackberry, plum, vanilla, cedar, tobacco leaf and gentle warm spice. The palate is smooth and elegant, with fine tannins, a savoury backbone, and a long, graceful finish. It’s mature Rioja in its sweet spot: expressive, soft, and beautifully balanced.
Made from organically grown Tempranillo harvested from Navarrsotillo’s estate vineyards in Rioja Oriental. Grapes are fermented with minimal intervention and aged according to Gran Reserva regulations — typically 24+ months in oak, followed by several years of bottle ageing before release. Organic farming, careful oak use and patient maturation define the style: purity, elegance and time-honed depth.
