Description

Viña Coqueta wine is made from the La Coqueta vineyard, located at the foot of Samaniego and is also the vineyard located directly at the Remirez de Ganuza Winery. The orientation and height of this plot give the grapes a unique point of ripeness. The wine maintains the exhaustive grape selection processes that characterize the winery. Viña Coqueta takes its name from the estate "Coqueta", the estate of Remirez de ganuza that supplies the grapes for the production of this wine of the Tempranillo, Graciano varieties and skins and pulp of Viura and Malvasía. For the elaboration of this wine, the shoulders are used, the highest part of the bunch and therefore more mature due to exposure to the sun.

In the glass, the Coqueta from Remirez de Ganuza has a beautiful dark cherry red color with bright tears in the glass. The nose is a very intense wine with notes of preserved fruit, balsamic vinegar, caramel and nuts and mineral notes with hints of graphite. On the palate, the Viña Coqueta has a wide and dense palate. Notes of toast and spices are perceived with very fine-grained tannins. In one word: a beautiful wine.

Grandcruwijnen is the Dutch Importer of the wines of the Top Rioja House: Remirez de Ganuza and we are very proud of this because Remirez de Ganuza belongs to the absolute top of Spain and is also highly appreciated internationally. All their wines score well above the 90 Parker and Penin point mark with the absolute peak for the 2004 Gran Reserva which has received a whopping 100 points.

The owner of this absolute top domain is Fernando Remirez de Ganuza. Obsessed with quality with an ongoing commitment to excellence in his wine, Fernando is the absolute pioneer in Innovation. At Remirez de Ganuza, even the smallest detail in the entire production chain of the wines is looked at and they are constantly optimizing. Fernado's motto is that exceptional quality can only be achieved through strict selection. His knowledge and experience with La Rioja vineyards make him one of the most appreciated winemakers in the region. The vineyards are spread over the villages of Samaniego, Laguardia, Leza and Elciego which are located in the most beautiful part of the Rioja namely the Rioja Alavesa. The bottom of the vineyards have a limestone clay composition with abundance of gravel and small round stones. Remirez de Ganuza only works with very old vines with an average age of 60 years or older. About 90% of the vines are Tempranillo, the rest of the vineyards include Graciano, Viura and Malvasia. The vineyards are 'en gobelet' but with a support on wire so that there is a larger exposure to the sun and better photosynthesis. A unique system that Fernando developed himself.

At the Remirez de Ganuza winery, the grapes undergo a strict selection, which also shows how quality-conscious but also how innovative Fernando is making absolute top wine. All grapes are harvested by hand and the grapes are first "rested" in the cooling chamber for 24 hours. First is separation from the bottom and shoulders of each cluster. Only the “los hombros” or the shoulders (the top part of the bunch of grapes) are used for his Reserva wines (Fincas de Ganuza, Remirez de Ganuza reserva and gran reserva and Trasnocho) because these are the most ripe grapes with the most sun seen.
