The winemaker’s favourite plot. Limited edition: 2.127 bottles
VARIETY:

100% Tempranillo.

AGEING:

The selected grapes are kept in a cold chamber for 36 hours, for a pre-fermentative cold maceration
at 4ºC, concentrating in this period of time, color and aromas. Four days after, they are introduced
into the stainless-steel truncated tank and the fermentation starts spontaneously, thanks to the
native yeasts. The temperature is controlled during the whole fermentation process at 20 – 24ºC, for
about 20 days. The second fermentation takes place into French oak barrels to gain complexity. They
are two-year-old barrels, to preserve the fruit expression. The wine is left in the same barrels for 18
months and then bottled into 2,127 bottles where it rests for another 6 more months.

TASTING NOTES:

When you look at it, it is intense, deep and purplish. When you smell it, you are captivated by the floral
aromas of violets typical of the 2019 vintage. The strawberry and raspberry aromas flows straight into
your nose elegantly mixed with hints of aromatic plants; these last aromas must have something to
do with the thyme trees that naturally grows next to our plot. On the palate, you can feel the freshness
of a fruity wine, the power of a meticulous selection and the delicate and rounded tannins of an
excellent vintage. The red fruit stays long with minerality, and it is mixed with a nice sweetness
achieved by the French oak.
