“Possibly one of the best Corimbo wines in the history of Bodegas La Horra.”
No, these are not the words of just another wine critic. They come from Agustín Santolaya, the big boss at Bodegas Roda. Agustín and our entire team are therefore incredibly proud to present this Corimbo 2023.
2023 has turned out to be an outstanding vintage. And that was by no means guaranteed. Like 2022, it was a very warm year. But in September, just before harvest, the rain arrived. This slowed the ripening process and delayed the harvest slightly. After fermentation, the wines emerged from the tanks with surprising freshness. This is exactly what Agustín points out:
“It is incredible to experience how, in warm vintages like 2023,
the fruit is so present and so fresh.”
Corimbo comes from slightly younger vineyards than Corimbo I Reserva. It is therefore approachable sooner.
Their release dates alone are four years apart. This year, the outstanding 2019 vintage of Corimbo I Reserva was released.
And Corimbo costs only half the price of Corimbo I Reserva.
This is a truly outstanding wine for its price, with excellent ageing potential too.
