Description
- Refined oak
- Jammy red fruit
- Soft spice
- Long-lasting flavour
An attractive rich red with luminous highlights in the glass. Soft spice and refined oak decorate the nose, with a depth of jammy red berry fruits. The wine is luscious and intense on tasting with pleasant tannins that mingle with fresh and mature fruit. It finishes with delicious, long-lasting flavours.
Selection of parcels from 15-25 year-old vineyards, located in Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa. Controlled yields of 45HL/HA on average (6.500kgs/ha).
The grapes are de-stemmed and crushed. Alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperatures starting off at 10C to reach 28C. Prolonged skin-contact maceration up to 21 days. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Once this process has finalised, the wines are put into barrels for ageing with racking every six months.
