Vineyard:
The grapes come from several carefully selected vineyards in the prestigious Ribera del Duero region. The winery works with long-trusted grape growers and selects plots with varied soil composition, from chalky and clay soils to stony soils. The vines are often 40 years old or more, which contributes to lower yields but a higher concentration and complexity of the grapes. The diversity of vineyards and microclimates makes it possible to create a wine with a rich, layered character and an authentic expression of the region.
Ageing and production:
Each plot is processed separately to preserve its specific character. Fermentation is carried out under controlled conditions with an emphasis on extracting aromatic compounds and fine tannins. The wine then ages for approximately 14 to 16 months in French oak barrels, carefully selected to support the wine's structure without suppressing its fruit expression. After ageing, the individual batches are finally blended, creating a harmonious and balanced cuvée.
Taste and aroma:
The wine's aromatic profile is complex and elegant. The nose is dominated by notes of ripe red and black fruit, such as cherries, plums and blackberries, complemented by delicate spicy, floral and balsamic nuances. Over time, notes of cocoa, tobacco or delicate wood may also appear. On the palate the wine is full, structured and at the same time very refined. It stands out for its balanced acidity, gently rounded tannins and a long, elegant finish with a mineral undertone.
Food pairing:
This wine is ideal to pair with bolder dishes. It goes beautifully with beef steak, lamb, game or slow-roasted meat. It also works very well with grilled specialities and mature hard cheeses. Thanks to its elegance, however, it also holds its own alongside modern and more sophisticated cuisine.
