Tasting note

This wine is aromatic and intense with great volume in the mouth, and achieves a balance between the fresh acidity and the texture contributed by 6 months’ maceration with the skins. Vinification in amphorae contributes rich texture to the palate and results in a wine with tension, volume and smoothness. Ageing potential of around 10 years.

Vinification

Grapes are destemmed, whole berries placed inside the "viejas tinajas" (old terracotta amphorae). Fermentation is with native yeasts; wine remains in contact with the skins for 6 months until malolactic fermentation is complete. Racked to another "tinaja" and aged for a further 6 months prior to bottling. No fining or filtering and no sulphites added.
