Pesquera Crianza Ribera del Duero wine.

Production and aging

Pesquera Crianza is made from 100% Tempranillo grapes. In Pesquera, the harvest takes place from August to October. The vine leaves turn ochre, transferring their strength to the clusters. It is the moment for man to continue the work of nature in the winery. 'Pesquera' wines are always made from whole, destemmed fruits. Fermentation, at controlled temperature, lasts between two and three weeks.

After pressing, and without clarification, the wines go directly to a wise and subtle combination of American and French oak barrels with different toasting.
