Elaboration

1

Tempranillo: cold macerated for two hours before bleeding off, to obtain a must of a very pretty shade of pink. The Tempranillo Blanco was macerated separately and after a day at 8 °C it went to a small capacity press to obtain first run must at low pressure. The blended musts then start the process of fermentation at low temperature (below 15 °C) to maximize the primary aromas, in small capacity egg-shaped tanks and stainless steel truncated cone shaped tanks.

2

The must is micro-oxygenated in the egg-shaped tanks and the lees are stirred using convection movements. In the truncated-cone tanks, the internal propellers help to homogenize the blend without losing aromas, thanks to its inverted shape.

3

As the resulting wine has just the right amount of balanced acidity, it does not need to undergo malolactic conversion, so the natural freshness of the wine is maintained. In the truncated-cone tanks, very exacting work with the fine lees takes place over two months, which gives the wine its characteristic unctuous texture and personality.

Color

Elegant pale pink color with bluish iridescence.

Smells

Fresh red fruit aromas with reminiscent of jelly beans. After aeration, pastry and mineral notes appear, typical aromas of its lees work in concrete tanks. Complex and surprising.

Taste

The palate is harmonious, fresh and fun. Very fragrant with strawberry aromas and a silky and long finish.
