Ageing
Malolactic fermentation took place in new
French oak barrels, and for the barrel ageing we put the wine in French, American
and Hungarian oak casks successively along 17 months. Finally, the wine has stayed
ageing in bottle for over a year.
Vineyards
Tempranillo: 90% and Graciano 10%.
Tasting
Still fairly young, intensely coloured getting closet o being black in the centre of
the glass, and with purple and violet shades. Persistent and intense aromas with
cedar, spices and toasty hints over a fresh background of blackberries and plums.
Fresh and fruity to the palate with an aftertaste where violets and red fruits stand
out, well balanced, elegant and with firm tannins. |
