Beyond the label

“Spain is firing on all cylinders,” says Wine Spectator. With its flavor-boosting old vines, fruit-rich native grapes and traditional emphasis on barrel aging, the country is producing superb, age-worthy wines—and La Cantera Reserva is an excellent example. Plus, because many of its regions aren’t on the average U.S. consumer’s radar (yet), the value is unbeatable.

In Cariñena (“home to some of the best-value reds in Spain, if not the world,” according to Decanter), the flavors get even deeper. And no one knows how to harness all that full-fruited charm with as much finesse as Javier Domeque. He’s the man behind our hugely popular El Bombero and Gran Bombero reds, and this perfectly mature Reserva is just more delicious proof of his winemaking skill.

Exactly the type of serious flavor and value you can expect from modern Spain, La Cantera is the product of Javier’s prized Tempranillo vines. These 65+ year-old heirlooms produce tiny amounts of grapes with HUGE flavor—yet, the clusters are so small, they fit right in the palm of your hand. A 14-month slumber in oak (followed by another few years in bottle) means you can look forward to a seriously mellow, complex wine that’s made for hearty, slow-cooked dishes.

You’re in for expressive raspberry and black fruit aromas, with subtle toasty vanilla notes. On the palate, La Cantera is well balanced and smooth, with layer after layer of luscious red berries and a long finish.

Another trademark of old vines? Low yields. We only have so much of this fine Reserva to go around—order today.

GOOD TO KNOW: This wine qualifies for multiple case pricing (a case = 12 btls). The more cases you buy, the less you’ll pay per bottle—and the more you’ll save! Price updates in shopping cart.
