100% Tempranillo
Wine from La Tierra de Castilla
Vintage: Gracias a los suelos arcillosos y altura de nuestros viñedos, las escasas lluvias y temperaturas más altas de lo normal durante el mes de Julio no han incidido en la calidad de esta añada.
In the months of August and September the marked temperature range helped the grapes reach their phenolic ripening optimum, resulting in a year of high quality.
VITICULTURE: Sourced from a single estate vineyard site – Finca Los Cruces – that was planted in 1970. The globet trained vines are managed with traditional dry farmed viticulture with minimal intervention and are harvested by hand.
Organic viticulture, working the soil in the traditional way without the intervention of chemical products.
WINEMAKING: The grapes are sorted meticulously at the winery and fermented in stainless steel tanks by indigenous yeast. Malolactic occurs in tank, and the wine is transferred to second and third vintage French oak barrels for aging.
TASTING NOTES: Bright violet color. Aromas of red berries, spices and dried flowers with a spicy note that is becomes pronounced as it breathes. Juicy in the mouth, offers fresh currants and cherry flavors. Fine- grained tannins add to a long finish with accented spices.
