Arnegui Viento Norte is a red wine from the D.O.Ca. Rioja made by Pagos del Rey with 100% Tempranillo grapes from selected vineyards in Rioja Alta. The influence of the Cantabrian wind and the surroundings of the Sierra de Cantabria help define its personality. It shows an intense garnet colour and an expressive nose, with aromas of ripe fruit, subtle smoky notes and hints from ageing in wood. On the palate it is powerful, full-bodied and structured, with a balance between fruit and oak that adds complexity without losing freshness. Its approximately 12 months of ageing in second-use oak barrels helps round out the tannins and develop a deeper aromatic profile. It is an intense and persistent red wine, with a savoury, long finish. It pairs well with red meats, game dishes, traditional stews, rice dishes and cured cheeses. Serve between 14 and 16 °C to fully appreciate its qualities.
