Product Notes

Bodegas Valdemar Conde Valdemar Rioja Gran Reserva is an outstanding red wine that has been carefully crafted to bring out the best characteristics of Rioja grapes. It is produced in the renowned Rioja Alavesa wine region and aged for at least 24 months in French and American oak barrels. This results in a complex, full-bodied wine with warm aromas of ripe black fruit and vanilla. On the palate, it delivers flavours of blackberry, plum and spices, with a subtle hint of oak. This wine is a perfect reflection of the Rioja region and is a great choice for pairing with rich meat dishes or mature cheeses.

Tasting Notes

This wine displays an attractive and intense red ruby colour, clean and bright. Intense and complex aromas of concentrated black fruit. Hints of coffee, black liquorice, truffle and balsamic notes of eucalyptus. Elegant, smooth, tasty, with a strong personality and a very long aftertaste.

About the Winery

Bodegas Valdemar

Bodegas Valdemar serves as one of the most renowned wine estates and cellars in the Oyón town in the province of Alava in Spain. The origin of the winery dates back to 1889, accumulating over 130 years of rich history. The initial story began with Joaquín Martínez Bujanda, the founder and first-generation owner of Bodegas Valdemar.

Joaquín was skilled in the art and craft of winemaking as he gained experience by producing wines in his native town of Oyón. He passed on his knowledge to Marcelino, his son, and Jesús, his grandson. They followed suit by performing and working in the same manner. In the 1980s, Jesús and his son of the same name set up and established Bodegas Valdemar. 

Today, the fifth and fourth generations of the family manage and handle all operations of the Bodegas Valdemar. Hence, Jesús Martínez Bujanda and his children, Ana and Jesús, oversee the winery. They work hard and toil to improve the existing systems and all the attributes of the wine they produce. They aim to create and develop novelties that provide a distinguishable yet personal touch in the industry. 

The vineyards owned by Bodegas Valdemar remain nestled and located among the Rioja hillsides. It leads to the development of distinct and fresh aromas in the terroir. The winery uses approximately 300 hectares of land to plant the vines and grow the grapes. They utilise top-quality grape varieties such as Graciano, Garnacha, Viura, Maturana Tinta, Tempranillo Blanco, Tempranillo Tinto, Sauvignon Blanc, Mazuelo, Verdejo, and Viura. 

The wines produced by Bodegas Valdemar are of the highest quality. They stand out from the other drinks of the same kind because of their innovation and creativity. They present an exquisite sense of meticulous work and efforts that start from the vineyards and end in the cellars.
