Profile & Story
All our 138 hectares of vineyards are at or above an altitude of 2,750 feet on the sea level, are 100% Tinto Fino, and have an average age of 35 years. For our Reserva, we pick the grapes by hand coming from our older vines (30years of age and above). This wine went through a maceration and fermentation process lasting for 18-19 days, with malolactic conversión taking place in concrete tanks. Barrel ageing lasted for 20 months in American and French oak 225-litre barrels, of an average age of 2.5 years and medium toast. Furthermore, we aged this wine in bottle for a further 20 months before release
Tasting Notes
Deep garnet colour, powerful on the nose combining ripe red fruit with aromas of raisins and leather, this wine has anout standing balance on both nose and palate as well as a both expressive and elegant mouth feel and intense aromas of dry plums, and ripe cranberry complemented by nuances of complex leather and coffee bean. Long and fresh after taste
Pairing Recommendation
Great with red meat and game dishes, spicyfish as well as cured cheese
