1974 Contino Reserva - Rioja

The 1974 Contino Reserva is truly a rare gem.  It marks the first release from Contino, Cune's now legendary single vineyard estate.  The winery is responsible for some of the greatest wines produced in Spain in the last 35 years. The 153 acre property actually dates back to a 15th century land grant from Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand.  The wine is drinking beautifully now with red fruits mingling with more aged flavors of orange peel, dried rose petal, and tea.  Only 2 bottles available.
