Produced from carefully selected hand-picked Tempranillo and Garnacha grapes, from our own vineyards ‘Hoya de los Lobos’, planted in 1954, ‘Clavijas’, planted in 1940, and ‘El Paso’, planted in 1960, located in Cintruénigo and Corella. These are the oldest and noblest local grapes for quality wines and they have been complemented with a touch of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from our vineyards in Aberin.
This wine has been matured in the traditional way in new French Allier oak barrels, for 18 months, with a further evolution in bottle that refines and harmonises the qualities of this wine, developing its complex bouquet.
Colour • A deep ruby, with a lighter rim, showing its age. Clean and bright.
Aroma • Full ripe soft fruit nose, with hints of tobacco. Reminiscences of soft red fruits, ripe stone fruits and black fruits. Spicy with vanilla and nut notes.
Palate • The first impression is of a velvety softness, but this opens out into a full-bodied wine, filling the mouth. Complex, well-structured tannins and excellent hints of oak. Powerful finish. Alive, modern, allowing a good lay-down ageing.
