I love the textbook nose of the 2016 Señorío de P. Peciña Reserva, as it is earthy, spicy and developed, with notes of leather and vanilla and a touch of smoke and brick dust. It has ripe fruit without excess and a medium-bodied palate with great balance and freshness. It has pungent flavors and is powerful and ripe without excess at 14.5% alcohol and with polished chalky tannins. This matured in American oak barrels for 36 months, during which time it was racked every six months. 42,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2020.

The 2016 Reserva Señorío de P. Peciña is a blend of 95% Tempranillo, 3% Graciano and 2% Garnacha from the Sonsierra area in Rioja Alta. Aged for 36 months in American oak barrels, this garnet wine offers sour cherry, candied fruits and mushroom notes over an oaky layer, with hints of coconut and vanilla. Dry and supple on the palate, the faintly chalky texture leads to a compact flow. The 2016 is a terroir-driven wine.

Fresh and harmonious, with enticing, savory underpinnings of leather, sweet smoke and eucalyptus enmeshed with notes of macerated cherry and raspberry fruit, singed orange peel, vanilla and smoked paprika. Supple, fine-grained tannins firm the finish. Tempranillo, Graciano and Garnacha. Drink now through 2036. 2,500 cases made, 600 cases imported.
