Alvar de Dios Yavallo 2021 is a parcel red wine that reflects the dedication and vision of winemaker Alvar de Dios Hernández. This wine comes from a small vineyard of only 0.2 hectares located in the Arribes del Duero region, with the geographical indication Tierra de Castilla y León. The vines, over 80 years old, grow in iron-rich red slate soils, giving the wine a unique personality marked by minerality and elegance. The production of Yavallo is meticulous: hand harvesting is followed by fermentation with native yeasts and whole bunches. Maceration lasts up to 40 days, and aging in French oak barrels for 12 months refines the wine's tannins. This results in a limited production product, with around 1306 bottles, acclaimed internationally with 95 Parker points. In the glass, Alvar de Dios Yavallo displays a pale, bright ruby color, with captivating aromas of wild red fruit, sour cherries, spicy notes, and deep minerality. On the palate, it reveals an ethereal, fresh, and silky texture with a long, persistent finish. It is recommended to serve at 14-16°C and to decant 30 minutes before consumption to allow its complex aromas to unfold. Ideal for pairing with roasted white meats, game birds, and rice dishes with wild mushrooms.
