Produced from Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo) from selected plots from numerous vineyards of the Páramo de Fuetecén, over 900 meters high in the heart of the Ribera del Duero of Burgos, with a combination of stony soils, clay rich soils and white limestone. The grapes for the Crianza are from vines at least 25 years old which due to their age, produce less than 5,000 kilos per hectare. The wine spends 12 months in new barrels (70% French oak/30% American) with different levels of toasting. The nose is full of intense dark berry fruit: blackberries, blueberries, dark plum with vanilla and nutmeg interwoven amongst a hint of minerality. The intensity of the nose follows on the palate with deep dark fruit filling the mouth with silky tannins and an overwhelming sense of elegance. This is really exciting example of Ribera del Duero in all its glory.
