Soft & silky, with a strong personality
Description
Cherry, Oak, Spice
Red ruby colour with a distinctive brick orange rim. Of a great intensity, with vanilla, coffee, spices and ripe black fruit aromas, as well as nuances from the bottle aging: leather, dry leaves. Soft and silky, with a strong personality. Very prolonged, warm and pleasing.
Selected vineyards around our hometown of Elciego, in Rioja Alavesa. Continental Mediterranean, with a strong Atlantic influence. Rainy and cold, 2014 was a quite complex vintage which requited a hard work in terms of grape selection. At the end it delivered a “Good” quality. Tempranillo. Vines are more than 40 years old, grown in traditional gobelet system.
24 months in barrels plus 36 months in the bottle. Barrels are of French oak (75%) and American oak (25%) All are brand-new.
Food Pairing: All types of roasted meats. Ideal with the main Riojanspeciality: suckling lamb cutlets grilled over vine shots. Classic recipes, such as stews game meat and poultry. Cured and smoked cold meats. Some cured cheeses are also interesting pairings. Black chocolate desserts.
