Product Description
Details

Produced by Bodegas Señorío de Otazu, the wine Pago de Otazu Tinto is made from vineyards located in Sierra del Perdón and Etxauri, two areas within the province of Pamplona, Navarra.

In 2009, the place was granted the "Vino de Pago" seal, which distinguishes the wines coming from the best terroirs.

This excellent Spanish red wine is made from a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, hand-picked at dawn.Once in the cellar, they were macerated for a week in French oak barrels, and subsequently aged for 18 months.

Before its commercial release, this red wine Pago de Otazu 2021 was aged for some months in the bottle.

The production of the 2020 vintage of this Reserva red wine from DO Pago de Otazu is quite limited.

We suggest that you aerate this red wine from Navarra 30 minutes before you drink it.

Appearance

The wine Pago de Otazu Tinto is medium purple with a ruby rim.

Nose

This blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon suggests some fresh notes of red berries, spices and balsam, punctuated by hints of freshly ground coffee. As the wine opens, there appear remembrances of fine leather, cedar, vanilla, dry earth and mineral.

Palate

Velvety-bodied and nicely balanced, with delicious flavours of red fruit, dim suggestions of vanilla and clove, and a toasted core. This wine from Bodega Otazu has a very good acidity and some ripe, savoury tannins. Long and evocative finish. 

Our personal opinion

Deep and elegant, Señorío de Otazu 2021 is a noteworthy red wine from Navarra.
