Heredad de Baroja Tempranillo

01/06

Vintage

The cycle began with a rainy winter with moderate temperatures, which led to budding even earlier than in 2023. The beginning of spring was also rainy, giving way to a period of prolonged drought that would last until September, with moderate temperatures. The red grape harvest began in October, as usual. The result: a very low-yield harvest of fairly high quality. The 2024 wines are aromatic, well-structured and fairly balanced on the palate.

Winemaking

Following the traditional system of carbonic maceration, the wine is made with whole bunches in stainless steel deposits. Fermentation lasts for a maximum of 10 days with pump overs every 8 hours, thus extracting the typical features of Tempranillo. It then undergoes malolactic fermentation. After secondary fermentation, the wine is racked to homogenise it and fine it in deposits, in which the decanting process is facilitated, whereupon it is ready for filtering and bottling.

Tasting notes

Colour

An intensely layered centre with mauve tones near the edges. Lively and clean.

Nose

Clean, varietal aroma characteristic of young Tempranillo. Aromas of forest fruits (blackberries, raspberries) and floral notes.

Mouth

Shows a certain amount of character on the fore palate, although its acidity is offset by a warm feel. It shows a pleasant finish with rich tannins. The varietal character is noticeable once more on the palate, with liquorice and a dairy aftertaste.

Pairing

This wine goes well with red meat dishes, pasta and cheeses as well as excellent with Spanish tapas.
