Labastida Madurado

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

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

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.
