Crianza

Cocoa, delicate woody spice and kirsch aromas open to a substantial and satisfyingly complex palate with judiciously used oak and a graphite freshness. Sourced from vineyards in Samaniego and Villabuena, Rioja Alavesa, the 100% Tempranillo fruit was destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks, then aged in medium-toast, new and used oak barrels (60% French, 40% American) for 12-14 months. There are tannins here but they are ripe and supportive, seamlessly framing the wine. It is peppery and a touch herbal with plenty of layers of fruit that speak to its origins. A classic oak-aged red from this part of Rioja.
