Bodegas Protos Reserva is an expressive release built around layers of red and black fruit, gentle earthy nuance and refined tannins.

The wine is vinified with a controlled, site-first approach, then matured to integrate texture and savoury nuance without obscuring the fruit's character. A longer maturation gives the wine extra depth and integration, layering complexity while keeping the palate composed.

Sustainability is approached through responsible viticulture and thoughtful sourcing, favouring healthier vineyards and lower-impact practices so the wine can be made with minimal corrective intervention.

The producer behind this label focuses on site expression and consistency, crafting wines that feel authentic, balanced and quietly distinctive.

Deep ruby red with mature garnet rim. Refined and complex nose of dark cherry, cedar, and subtle tobacco with layers of dried fig, leather, and warm spice. Full-bodied and robust on the palate with velvety tannins and a concentrated core of dark fruit supported by toasty oak complexity. The extended ageing in French and American oak delivers exceptional depth and structure. Generous finish with lingering flavours of ripe plum, chocolate, and elegant oak character.
