Roda I Reserva 2012

This dry red wine from the D.O. Ca. Rioja is a classic blend crafted by Bodegas Roda. It offers a complex profile with aromas of ripe black cherries, plums, and well-integrated oak, supported by silky tannins and a balanced structure.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Tempranillo, Graciano
  • D.O. / Region: D.O. Ca. Rioja
  • Winery: Roda
  • Soil / Altitude: Diverse soils, 380-650 m
  • Ageing / Cellaring potential: 16 months in oak, 20 months in bottle

The vineyard

The Tempranillo and Graciano grapes come from old vines over 30 years of age, situated at altitudes ranging from 380 to 650 meters. This diversity of soils and microclimates provides the fruit with remarkable character and freshness, with yields strictly limited to ensure concentration.

Ideal combination

Winemaking

Following a manual harvest and rigorous selection, fermentation takes place in French oak vats. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and subsequent aging for 16 months in French oak barrels, followed by 20 months of refinement in the bottle.

Why buy it

Its outstanding structure and balance make it an excellent wine for cellaring, perfect to pair with red meat dishes and aged cheeses. If you are looking for an elegant addition to your private collection, you can buy Roda I Reserva 2012 online directly from our shop.

Superb nicely aged Roda 😍 Aromas of ripe black fruit: black cherries, plum, blackberry. Spice & oak influence: cocoa/dark chocolate, cloves, cinnamon, vanilla. Earthy & balsamic hints: graphite, crushed stone. Medium-full body Blend of Tempranillo with small amounts of Graciano and Garnacha Critics : Suckling 97, Wine Spectator 93.

Fresh and linear wine with a firm and lively palate. It may not be fleshy but it is bold, inviting and intense with cassis coulis, fresh herbs, black plums,dark chocolate, tilled clay and noble tobacco tones. Its age has endowed it with a silky and rich texture!

Very nice, modern Rioja, mainly with red fruits notes, and some chocolate and vanila in background. At first sip, could be more rounded... but as it opens, slowly shows it best. Long, long aftertaste.

👃 funky nose that smells like a great Bordeaux 👅 smooth, round, balanced and a bit savory. I love it and the pairing with the veg is as good as the osso bucco 🍇 89% Tempranillo, 9% Graciano & 2% Garnacha

Different take on Roda’s reserva, the 1 is selected from warmer microclimates with a different, darker fruit profile in mind. This is matched by a longer time spent in French oak compared to the regular reserva. The result is showing one of the very best modern Riojan expressions around with powerful dark fruit combined with smoky wood and sweet baking spices. What really does the trick though is that is has a light and elegant sensation on the incredibly well balanced palate despite being such a big wine.

Wow, what a great wine! Wifey was suggested this wine when travelling in Madrid, but finally tried it together. If you're a fan of Ribera wines, you should try this Rioja.

Wine & dine with @Tom N.! Tom brought another stunning, 10y old, classic at the table, excited I can give it a try. All about elegance here and completely different than the bolder 07 I’ve had before … & in stock (both by Tom as well 🤭). Opening gentle, elegant & quite fresh as well with mix of red cherries & minerals followed by red plums, some brambles, elegantly framed in cedar with spots of blond tobacco & sweet spice. The elegancy continues at the palate with lots of red fruit & ⤵️⤵️⤵️

And the #Iberuly wines continue. 🇪🇸🍷 This beautifully aged, 2012 Rioja Reserva was served with the main course (authentic paella 🥘) and made a magnificent pairing. Aged, red fruit on the nose and palate, licorice, tar, tobacco, cedar, black pepper, and vanilla. Silky smooth tannins very well-integrated rounding out the high alcohol and acidity. An outstanding bottle opened at precisely the right age.

Matador room. Short rib tacos, avocado pizza, arroz con pollo. Huge beautiful fruity bouquet hints of blueberry, mint, plum, date, oak, damp wood, black olive - so much to unpack on the nose could smell all day. Tobacco. Slightly overshadowed by the short rib as its medium bodied and acidic but mellowed in terms of tannin. So much going on in this wine which I love and makes it a 4.5 for me

Chewy, thick Roda I 2012. Drinking the magnum. Great depth with intense ripe forest fruits, tobacco, blackberries and charcoal.

Delicious magnum of Roda 1. Big and lush. Ripe Tempranillo and a modern style Rioja definitely in a ripe vintage.

Break this bottle open, sit back and relax for a while and then be prepared to be taken on a magic carpet ride! This wine is fantastic. Has everything you can want in a wine and more. This beauty accompanied a great Chateaubriand perfectly. Cheers!
