THE LAND, VINEYARDS AND PROPERTY
BODEGA IMPERANTE is forged by family tradition in winemaking.
Our wines are meticulously crafted using grapes selected from the family’s oldest vineyards.
The winery and its vineyards lie in the heart of La Rioja, on the banks of the Ebro River, a privileged enclave dedicated to exceptional viticulture.
These exclusive, high-quality wines, were meticulously crafted by López- Alonso, now available across a diverse range of artisan expressions.
IMPERANTE wines embody the essence of this land. They are produced from distinct vineyards influenced by Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Continental climates.
Each vineyard is vinified separately, every cluster carefully selected by hand, and the latest technological innovations are applied with a single purpose: to deliver exceptional quality and everyday pleasure in every bottle.
THE WINES

IMPERANTE RESERVA
An expressive and captivating nose opens with deep tones of dark chocolate, redcurrant and ripe cherry, lifted by subtle traces of licorice. Predominant accents of spiced vanilla add warmth and complexity, unfolding gradually in the glass.
The palate is juicy and vibrant, supported by glossy, well-polished tannins. Mineral nuances weave through the mid-palate, seamlessly fused with alluring vanilla-oak spices, creating a sense of depth and seduction. The finish is long, smooth and elegantly framed.
Aged for 30 months in medium-toast French and American oak barrels, followed by an additional 12 months of bottle ageing.

Its pale yellow hue introduces an enticing nose of passion fruit and freshly cut grass, complemented by delicate white-fruit notes reminiscent of orchard apples—an echo of its vineyard origins.
The palate is seductive and lively, marked by bright citrus tones that glide over a smooth, subtle backdrop. Floral nuances and a gentle, appetizing bitterness lend finesse, while each sip reveals increasing texture and balance, giving the wine a graceful, rounded evolution.
