If there’s one thing that defines us at Bodegas Arzuaga, it’s the care we take into every process in the vineyard and the winery throughout the year. We work day in and day out to obtain the best grapes, harvested at their perfect ripeness, and craft wines that consistently deliver the highest quality to your homes and glasses. Although every step is important, that’s why there are two moments that stand out as particularly significant at Arzuaga. The first one is the harvest, when we gather the fruits of our vines after a year’s worth of work during the vine’s cycle. It’s especially thrilling to see how the grapes reach the perfect state of ripeness and provide us with all the nuances that we’ll later transfer to the wine. And in this regard, the second moment we’re referring to is precisely when those wines reach the bottle and your glasses. It’s when a new vintage hits the market, and we witness your reaction as you taste once again the result of our work in the field and in the winery. That’s exactly what we want to talk about in our blog today. As the new vintages of Reserva Especial 2019, Reserva 2020 and Crianza 2021 are already available in the market.
Reserva Especial 2019
