Special characteristics of the wine:
The grapes come from two different vineyards. One of them is in Cenicero, in Rioja Alta, at an altitude of 440 meters and with calcareous soil. And the other, in Rioja Oriental, near the Ebro River meander, at 360 meters above sea level, where the climate is much more Mediterranean compared to Rioja Alta and the soils are much more clayey.
Aging for 30 months in new extra-fine grain French oak barrels and a minimum of 16 months in the bottle.
The history of Osborne dates back to the end of the 18th century, when a young English merchant named Thomas Osborne Mann arrived in Cadiz to market the wines of the area. He soon began doing business in Puerto de Santa María and it was in this town that he founded his own winery which, more than 200 years later, would become the great business group it is today, of international fame and recognition.
