The Vino Tinto Antígona Tempranillo is a young red wine that represents the pure essence and authentic expression of the Tempranillo grape, grown in the prized region of Cigales, specifically in Cubillas de Santa Marta (Valladolid). This wine stands out for its ecological and vegan production, committing to sustainable practices from the vineyard to the bottle.

The grapes for "Antígona" are harvested at the end of September, meticulously selecting the best grapes and cooling them before pressing. Vinification is carried out in a distinctive way: 93% is fermented in concrete tanks, while the remaining 7% is subjected to carbonic maceration, finishing the fermentation with the stems. Afterwards, the coupage of both wines is carried out, followed by gentle fining with bentonite and filtering through natural cellulose.

Viticulture is carried out on terraces with boulders near the Douro River, taking advantage of gravelly soils that facilitate drainage and reduce the risk of cryptogamic diseases. Certified organic, natural treatments are applied in the vineyard, such as herbal infusions and broths, dispensing with the use of herbicides. This approach seeks to maintain and enhance biodiversity in the vineyard, allowing the grapes to express their characteristics in a genuine way.

The production of"Antigona Tempranillo" reflects artisanal care and respect for nature. The combination of traditional practices and winemaking innovation produces a vibrant young wine with an authentic expression of the Tempranillo variety, highlighting its fresh and fruity qualities. This wine represents a tribute to the biodiversity and unique identity of the Cigales terroir.
