Description
100% Bobal sourced from vineyards at 1,000 metres above sea level on the Meseta, of Castila-La-Mancha. With only 300mm of rain per year, the plateau is extremely dry; the deep-rooted old vines thrive in the low vigour soils. The ancient plantings of Bobal vines survive between rocky outcrops that cover the vineyards, where the soils are made up of limestone rich sedimentary red sand and clay. The grapes are fermented on their skins for 12 days. The wine is aged in 225 litre barriques for 6 months. Soft, juicy tannins complement the wine’s abundant fruit profile and earthy tones.
