The wine that was once called Roda II has been since 2002 simply Roda and the current release is the 2009 Roda Reserva. It has plenty of complex and expressive notes of beef blood, bright red berries that are perfectly ripe with hints of fennel, Mediterranean herbs, a touch of aniseed and very good freshness. The medium-bodied palate is incredibly harmonious offering both volume and freshness. This wine has some 10% Graciano. Great showing of Roda today, the surprise of the tasting. 94,828 bottles were filled in July 2011.
Black cherry, olive, licorice and smoke flavors are fresh and focused in this tender and expressive red, with fine-grained tannins that give way to a floral finish.
