This is a wine is from Toro and is from organically farmed Tempranillo vines that are 40 years old. This gives the wine a depth in colour and structure softened by aging in French and American oak for 8 months. The grapes where macerated and fermented in stanless steel. When fermentation had finished and delestage completed the wine was transferred into 7000l oak casks to undergo malolactic fermentation and then age. It is aged at the winery in bottle for 3 months before release.
It has a deep and intense cherry red colour. There is a rich ripe depth to the aromatics with hits of fresh black fruits rounded of by spicy toasty notes. The body is well-balanced with good structure from soft tannins and fresh acidity. The depth of ripe fruit gives it a full rich mouth feel.
This is also a vegan wine and organic certified.
