Produced by Bodegas Protos in Peñafiel (Valladolid), this red wine belongs to the Ribera del Duero D.O. and is made exclusively with Tinta del País (Tempranillo) grapes from vineyards between 30 and 35 years old. The harvest is manual, in 20 kg boxes, and there is a fermentation at 28°C for 21 days, followed by aging for 12 months in French and American oak barrels. Subsequently, the wine remains another 12 months in the bottle, refining its expression before going to market. Tasting notes - Sight: Cherry red color with purple highlights, bright and medium to high layer. - Nose: Aromas of ripe fruit (plum, blackberry) perfectly integrated with notes of vanilla, sweet spices, and light toasts from the wood. - Palate: Tasty, enveloping, and balanced, with mature tannins, good acidity, and a long finish reminiscent of ripe fruit and elegant toasts. Recommended pairing Ideal to accompany grilled red meats, traditional stews, game birds, Iberian sausages, and semi-cured cheeses.
