Description
The Tinto Fino selected for this is from some of the estate’s oldest vines grown at altitude, about 800m, on particularly poor and stony soils. Indigenous yeasts are used in fermentation which takes place in stainless steel tanks. The wine spends 18 months in new French oak which frames this elegant and complex wine. Beth Willard: Lifted, perfumed rose floral notes with delicate raspberry and red berries. The elegant palate has intensity. David Williams: Polished and fine, with high tones: keenness and grip colliding to mouthwatering effect. A nice burst of rosehippy clarity on a clean and cleansing finish. Diana Rollan: Fragrant, with plum, cherry compote, violets, cocoa and dried herbs. Elegant, lifted and complex, round silky tannins, mouthwatering and textured style, super-enjoyable.

This black skinned grape has been used for wine making for centuries, with several ancient civilizations noticing the fact that it is highly versatile and holds some delicious flavors and aromas, perfect for those looking for a powerful yet elegant grape for their wines. Tempranillo often causes winemakers some trouble, however, as it is highly susceptible to many diseases. Despite this, plenty continue to persevere with this varietal, as it is perfect for producing delicious and complex single variety and blended wines, packed full of classic Spanish flavors and plenty of aromatic and intense surprises.
