Varietales Tempranillo
The grape of Rioja par excellence
Varieties
Tempranillo
Vineyard
Tempranillo from our estates in Mendavia, in the Rioja Oriental subregion, where we found the optimum terroir for Mediterranean-style Riojas. The combination of the climatic stability and rich alluvial calcareous soils are a quality guarantee.
Vinification and ageing
Following vinification in stainless steel vats, this wine is aged for 12 months in new American-oak casks, which we select annually from the best coopers.
Colour
Garnet-red colour with violet hues.
Aroma
Intense aromas on the nose, with red berries and vanilla, reminders of a baker’s shop.
Palate
The meaty and complex palate has a touch of acidity to make it feel fresh and long.
Food pairing
The elegance and freshness of this Tempranillo is a perfect accompaniment of Spanish classics, such as paella or tapas.
