Vintage – 2014 was a highwire act, with challenging weather providing the conditions to produce an exceptional and complex wine. Rainfall was a defining characteristic of the vintage. A very long and humid winter followed by a mild and relatively dry spring resulted in a good bud break and an even vegetative cycle. While a warm and dry summer signaled an easy year; however, September was something different. Abundant rainfall coupled with high temperatures, as well as many foggy mornings, provided the perfect environment for botrytis, which resulted in a major loss of fruit and further reduced yields (positive for quality). 2014 was a year that Luberri’s work and unique canopy system allowed for aeration of the vines and intensive work in the vineyards resulted in a harvest of a small quantity of top-quality grapes. Luberri’s 2014 Gran Reserva is exceptionally well-balanced and harmonious with incredible aging potential.
Vinification – Completely destemmed grapes fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel. Aged in new and 1-year-old French oak barrels for 36 months before bottling in June 2018.
