Vintage
The 2022 vintage has been characterized by being climatically atypical, with a very humid end of winter and beginning of spring and then a persistent lack of rain and high temperatures, which, however, have not generated severe stress in the vineyards, as it was foreseeable. It has favored a complete maturation that in very humid years is not always complete. The result: a contained production, grain size somewhat smaller than normal with a good concentration of anthocyanins, medium tannins, and a higher concentration of aromas than expected. Despite being one of our earliest harvests in the last ten years, the good weather forecasts and the sanitary state of the vineyard, allowed us to carry out a harvest respecting the perfect state of maturation of each estate. The different maturation rates of the vineyard from one farm to another have been notorious, being one of the longest vintages in recent years.The 2022 wines show good levels of color, alcohol and acidity. Aromatically they are quite expressive and show a good skeleton in the mouth that suggests a great potential for aging and storage.

Winemaking
100% Tempranillo. The grapes are destemmed and crushed before undergoing a cold maceration at 6º C for 36 hours. Afterwards, the must and skins are placed in stainless steel deposits and fermented at a constant 26ª C. Following fermentation, the wine is bled out and begins malolactic fermentation naturally after a month.

Aging
The wine is aged for three months in American & French oak and stirred weekly. It is then racked to concrete deposits where the wine is decanted naturally before being filtered and bottled.

Tasting notes
Colour
Bright and intense centre with a ruby edge. Very clean.
Nose
The toast of the French oak barrel imparts a vanilla and chocolate aroma, with touches of coffee, but the entire bouquet is very well balanced, highlighting liquorice and red fruits on top of a bed of spices.
Mouth
Flavours of red fruits, liquorice and dark chocolate with a warm and persistent finish.
Pairing
Recommended with semi-cured cheeses, most types of Spanish tapas, red and white meat and stews.
