Carme Crianza y Reserva Red Wine 75 cl Gift Box

Two Ribera del Duero wines presented in a gift box

Carme Crianza and Reserva 2-Bottle Gift Set brings together two red wines from the Ribera del Duero D.O. in an attractive presentation designed for gifting and sharing. The set includes one bottle of Carme Crianza and one of Carme Reserva, both made from Tempranillo grapes, offering the opportunity to explore two different ageing styles within the same range.

It is an appealing choice for Ribera del Duero enthusiasts who enjoy comparing wines from the same winery. The elegant gift box makes it particularly suitable for celebrations, anniversaries, Christmas and corporate gifts.

What's included in the Carme gift set?

• 1 bottle of Carme Crianza 75 cl: a Ribera del Duero red wine made from Tempranillo and aged for 14 months in French oak barrels. It offers an appealing balance of fruit, structure and oak.
• 1 bottle of Carme Reserva 75 cl: a more extensively aged expression, matured for 18 months in French and American oak barrels, developing greater complexity and depth.

Both wines come from Valbuena de Duero, in Valladolid, yet offer two distinct interpretations of Tempranillo. Tasting them side by side provides an opportunity to discover how longer ageing and the choice of oak barrels influence the finished wine.

A gift for red wine lovers

The main appeal of the Carme Crianza and Reserva 2-Bottle Gift Set lies in offering two complementary wines rather than two bottles of the same expression. It is an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys discovering the differences between a Crianza and a Reserva.

The set is also ideal for a small comparative tasting. Serving both wines in similar glasses at approximately 16–18°C will help bring out their individual characteristics. We recommend starting with the Crianza before moving on to the Reserva, which has spent longer ageing in oak.

Two wines for different dining occasions

The Crianza pairs particularly well with cured meats, grilled meats, pasta dishes and roasts. The Reserva is an excellent match for richer dishes, including red meat, game, traditional stews and mature cheeses.

At Licorea, you can also purchase Carme Crianza and Carme Reserva individually. These are suitable alternatives if you already have a favourite or wish to choose a particular vintage. The gift set, however, is particularly appealing when you want an attractive presentation that allows the recipient to enjoy and compare both styles.
