TERROIR

To produce our red wines, we mainly use Tempranillo grapes from vineyards close to the Sierra de Yerga mountains, within the region of Cervera, at an average altitude of 700 m, located in towns such as Rincón de Olivedo.

The best vintage for everyday

With different ripening rates and harvested at their optimum moment, each variety is processed separately. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes are destemmed, largely preserving whole berries. Next, the controlled fermentation process begins at a temperature between 24 and 28ºC in stainless steel tanks with native and selected yeasts. After a maceration period of 15-20 days, malolactic fermentation begins.

Today we tried your Doña Isabella Garnacha Rosé, special grand cuvee. It's an exceptional wine. The sweetness on the nose is surprising, and on the palate it transports you to the purest flavor of the grape, pure fruit, pure raisin, pure varietal. Thank you!

Perfection and balance are the first things that come to mind when you taste this tremendous wine. An excellent Rioja, perfectly finished, extremely fine on tasting and very aromatic on the nose. A wine of impeccable category that you will never tire of enjoying again.

A great discovery both for the palate and for the mind: learning about the process and the variables that influence winemaking, and how the careful tending of the vines affects the fruit.

Specification Value
Tasting notes Deep cherry red color with purple hues. Clean, fragrant nose, with good intensity of red fruits (strawberry, raspberry) as well as interesting notes of black fruits (blueberries), all very well integrated with the tertiary aromas from its aging in American oak barrels, such as vanilla, spices, and coconut. On the palate, it presents a great velvety tannic structure, volume, and roundness. Aftertaste with ripe fruits and sweet confectionery notes.
Vinification With different ripening rates and harvested at their optimum moment, each variety is processed separately.

Recommendation The best everyday aging.
