Special selection of our best Tempranillo grapes picked at the peak of ripeness, the moment at which the grape reveals its finest qualities, qualities which have made this grape the queen of the Rioja vineyard.
Made following the traditional method of stemmed grapes, 24 hours’ cold maceration with the skins and subsequent fermentation at a controlled temperature, followed by 6 months’ cask ageing.
Tasting notes:
Bright, deep, cherry-red colour with violet rim. Intense aromas of red and black berries with hints of liquorice, typical of the best Tempranillo grapes, over a lovely base of clean oak, vanilla and tasted aromas recalling its brief period in the oak.
In the mouth it is fresh and tasty, rounded and balanced, with good acidity and a fruit and vanilla finish with the right persistence. |
