Tinta Fina (Tempranillo), Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
HARVEST
The grapes are harvested at optimum ripeness and hand-picked into 15kg boxes.
ELABORATION
Once in the winery, the grapes go through a grain sorting table, followed by a gentle destemming and crushing.
FERMENTATION
Alcoholic – A 48-hour cold maceration is carried out in an inert atmosphere to extract fruity aromatic compounds from the grapes. Fermented for 12 days at a controlled temperature of 25°C in 17,000L truncated cone-shaped tanks, followed by a post-fermentation maceration of about 20 days.
Malolactic – It remains in tank for 20 days with its fine lees, with a gentle battonage to increase its volume in the mouth.
BARRELS
Aged in French and American oak barrels for 12 months.
TASTING NOTES
Intense purplish red color, with a deep cherry rim. Nose with aromas of red fruits, balsamic and spicy touches of cocoa and coffee from aging in French and American barrels, which give it subtlety and elegance. The palate is smooth and powerful, yet refined and easy to drink. This crianza wine was born with the aim of being understood as a modern Ribera del Duero, trying to make it possible for everyone to enjoy the great pleasure of drinking wine.
