Production and aging

Melior is a single-varietal Tempranillo wine. The grapes come from vineyards owned by Pago Villabuena, planted on Franco-sandy-clayey soil at about 800 meters above sea level. Melior ages for 6 months in new American oak barrels and another 6 months in the bottle.

Fermentation is carried out at a controlled temperature and in a controlled manner.

Melior Tasting Note

• Appearance: Melior has a layer of dark cardinal and purple tones. It is clean and bright.
• Nose: Remarkable complexity of primary aromas, ripe red fruits like strawberry and raspberry, well blended with tertiary aging spices, highlighting aromas of coffee, licorice, and vanilla.
• Palate: Full-bodied and intense, yet lively and fresh. Remarkable progression, with significant sweet tannins. Important fruity sensations, with touches of clean wood, with a long and persistent finish.

Pairing

Melior is ideal to accompany grilled meats, mild meat stews, cheeses, and cured meats.

It is recommended to serve at a temperature between 16 and 18ºC.
