Valduero Crianza wine

Production and Aging

Valduero Crianza is made from Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) grapes. The grapes are hand-harvested in 14 kg boxes and ferment for 9 days at temperatures between 23 and 28ºC, followed by a 10-day maceration period. During this time, daily remontage is performed when the fermentation reaches its peak temperature.

The final step is to let the wine rest in oak barrels from two different origins for about 15 months, and at least 12 more months in the bottle.
