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.

Bold and Purebred

With different ripening rhythms and harvested at their optimum moment, each variety is processed separately. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes are destemmed, largely preserving the 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 the 15-20 day maceration process is complete, 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!

We enjoyed the Crianza at my niece-cousin’s communion. Very pleasant, versatile and well paired. I gladly recommend it.

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 Intense ruby red color. The nose is dominated by aromas of black fruits (blackberry, cassis) enveloped in smoky, spicy, and toasted notes. On the palate, we note that it presents elegant, mature, and silky tannins. With hints of licorice, vanilla, and coconut.
Vinification With different ripening rhythms and harvested at their optimum moment, each variety is processed separately. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes are destemmed, largely preserving the 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 the 15-20 day maceration process is complete, malolactic fermentation begins.
Recommendation The best reserve for every day.
