El Bombero Gran Reserva 2020
Rich, dark El Bombero has been a top choice with customers for over 20 years. And in special vintages, winemaker Javier Domeque crafts a sophisticated El Bombero Gran Reserva using the pick of the crop from his oldest vines.
To qualify for Gran Reserva status, the wine is aged in oak for three years with further time in bottle prior to release. It’s made mostly from Garnacha, the key grape in many full-bodied Spanish reds (and also of Châteauneuf-du-Pape), with a generous portion of juicy Tempranillo for added flavour.
It's a touch more refined than El Bombero itself, but still full of rich berry flavour and delicious spicy complexity from American oak. Drinking perfectly right now with roast lamb, game or a selection of tapas.
