DESCRIPCTION:
Crianza red wine aged for 8 months in French and American oak barrels. Made with 100% Monastrell grapes from free-standing vineyards.
The grapes used to make this wine come from free-standing vineyards over thirty years old, with a yield per vine of less than one kilo. The grapes were harvested in plastic crates with a capacity of fourteen kilos of grapes.
In the winery they were checked and sorted and carefully crushed. The vatting lasted three weeks, in stainless steel tanks of 10,000 litres capacity, with temperature control and pumping-over, frequent during fermentation and more spaced at the end of fermentation and until the end of the maceration phase. After racking and malolactic fermentation, the wine underwent a short period of ageing in new American and French oak barrels in April. After this time the wine was bottled, and the bottles remained in the same air-conditioned cellar until they were sold.
This wine has a very intense colour, with bright red tones. On the nose it has a deep aroma of ripe fruit, perfectly combined with the aroma of new wood. Spicy and slightly toasted. In the mouth it is a very powerful wine, with a lot of sensations, full-bodied and with soft, ripe tannins. Pleasant aftertaste and very long persistence.
Ideal with rice dishes, stews, legumes, mushrooms, meat stews, sausages, various roasts, medium and long cured cheeses, white and red meats, grilled meats, grilled meats...
