Pagos del Rey Arnegui Reserva: A Refined Rioja Tempranillo

Pagos del Rey Arnegui Reserva is a distinguished red wine crafted exclusively from Tempranillo grapes sourced from old, low-yielding vineyards in La Rioja Alta, Spain. This wine exemplifies the elegance and balance characteristic of the region's finest offerings.​

The winemaking process begins with meticulous hand-harvesting of the grapes, followed by a cold maceration period of 2–3 days to extract color and fine tannins. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures between 26–28°C for 8–12 days, followed by malolactic fermentation at 20°C. The wine is then aged for 18 months in new American oak barrels and further matured for 18 months in the bottle, culminating in a wine of remarkable sophistication. ​

On the nose, Arnegui Reserva reveals complex aromas of dried fruits and ripe blackberries, interwoven with balsamic notes and a delicate hint of vanilla. The palate is well-structured, showcasing a harmonious blend of fruit flavors and refined tannins, leading to a long and elegant finish. ​
