Product details
Carefully selected grapes from high-altitude vineyards originating from the Mirandese plateau, more specifically from five old vineyards of Transmontane men. Pruned in willow heads (cup shape), these vines are planted in a field blend, with 80% red grape varieties and 20% white grape varieties. Hand-harvested, followed by alcoholic fermentation in lagares (traditional stone troughs), with 30% stems, with minimal intervention/extraction. After alcoholic fermentation, malolactic fermentation follows in used 225-liter French oak barrels. Prolonged aging of 24 months in barrels and subsequent aging in bottle for 24 months.

Tasting Notes:
Light ruby colour. On the nose, it presents well-integrated forest fruit with notes of forest, pine, and undergrowth. On the palate, it has an elegant and defined attack, with the presence of fresh and gastronomic tannins, well integrated with an enveloping finish and well-balanced spice notes. A terroir wine, from altitude, with a fresh and quite elegant profile.

Disclaimer:
The photo shown is a copy of one of the bottles we have available for delivery. Keep in mind that the older the wine, the more likely the bottle will have some external dirt or slightly damaged labels. This does not mean, however, that the wine is not in a condition to be consumed.
The wines from our rarity zone are stored and air-conditioned in the most correct way so that the wine ages correctly in the bottle, but over time, the wine evolves and changes its characteristics.
We recommend that you carefully remove the cork and let the wine air for some time in order to release its natural aromas. Avoid decanting as it can be a very aggressive operation for old wines.
