Gran Reserva is the top tier of Spanish reds, and local star Maria Angeles Camara gave her officially 'excellent' vintage Tempranillo an extended, 36 months in barrel, which provides a soft edge of vanilla.

This fragrant red is in its element with duck or lamb, strong cheese, or tapas such as jamón Serrano. Decanting one hour before serving will really open up those smooth, spice-kissed flavors.
