Viticulture

Grapes selected from vines of more than 60 years of age, planted at more than 900 metres altitude, favouring slow ripening and conserving acidity in the grapes, essential factors for the subsequent barrel-ageing of the wine.

Vinification

Hand harvested. Double selection table, destalked and lightly crushed. Temperature-controlled fermentation. Prolonged maceration of 25 - 30 days.

Maturation

Ageing in French and American oak barrels of 225-litre capacity for 15 months, followed by more than 20 months' ageing in bottle.

Color

Intensity: deep

Taste

Food Pairing

A complex, mature wine that is perfect for pairing with red meats, large game stews, Castilian-style roasts and all kinds of mature cheeses. Perfect with pulses, meat-based rice and mushroom dishes.
