| Varieties: Tempranillo 50%, Garnacha 50%
Vol. Alcohol: 14
Total Acidity: 5.5
Characteristics: Made from grapes grown at high
altitude on south-facing slopes of the Sierra de
Cantabria mountain range. Rocky un-irrigated soil
which gives low yields per hectare. Old, ingenuous
vines perfectly suited to the rolling terrain of the
area.
Vinification process: Medium-length maceration
to combine a balance of intense colour and the
fruity style of a modern wine with aromas and
flavours of ripe berries.
Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats
with temperature controlled by cooling to 25-28º C
and maximum hygiene.
Natural fining by cooling and slow decanting so as
to maintain purity and a high level of aromas
without movement or oxidation.
Ageing: 12 months in natural, non-toasted,
French oak casks that allow perfect blending of the
fruit and the mellow tannin from the oak,
preserving the wine’s own characteristics.
Wine-tasting note: Red wine with a depth cherry colour, purple hints. Intense fruity palate,
fresh and lively. Well-structured wine which display excellent ageing potential.
Hight content in alcohol and acidity, perfectly equilibrated. Complex and rounded.
The final is long and persistent, with fruity tannin.
