Year: 1982 

About the Producer: 

"One of the grand old names of Rioja, Riojanas has produced heroic wines since its founding in 1890. Such continuity was assured not only by the enduring commitment of the owning Artacho family but the fact that, until Felipe Nalda’s retirement in 2013, Riojanas’ winemaker had been with the bodega for 49 years (since the great 1964 vintage). 

Old Monte Real and Albina are textbook examples of Rioja’s Old School. The blend is classic: Tempranillo enhanced by Mazuelo and Graciano and, for Monte Real, Garnacha. Fermentation was in large upright wood tinas, with long aging in American oak barrica and bottle before release." 

Alcohol: 12.5%
