Grapes

100% Tempranillo (Tinta Fina)

Harvest

The grapes are harvested at its optimum maturity stage, protected by the cool of the night using a mechanical harvester for preserving its freshness.

Elaboration

We do an additional selection of the harvest at a sorting table, once in the winery before destemming.

Fermentation

Alcoholic Fermentation: We make a cold soak for 48 h. in an inert atmosphere for a better extraction of fruity aromatic compounds from the grape. Ferments during 11 days at a controlled temperature set at 24-26ºC, in truncated cones stainless steel tanks of 17.000L.

Malolactic – It remains in the tanks with its fine lees during 28 days, and we do a gentle battonage for increasing the volume in the mouth.

Barrels

Aged in French oak for 20 weeks.

Tasting notes

Intense red cherry colour with violet rim. It shows fresh in the nose with cherries and plumbs aromas, together with a subtle roasted coffee note, spices and honey, stating its brief time in French oak. It’s fleshy on the palate with a light astringency and lingering.
