The Viña Solarce Red Wine is a distinctive product from Bodegas Casa La Rad, located in the emblematic region of the Qualified Designation of Origin Rioja. This wine is crafted through a careful process that includes a blend of 65% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha, and 15% Mazuelo, Graciano, and other native varieties, giving it unique complexity and aromatic richness. The grapes that form the base of this creation come from vineyards situated between 530 and 650 meters in altitude, with an average age of 25 years, planted on varied soils that include alluvial clays, limestone, and rocky areas. The harvest takes place in the last week of September, ensuring that each variety reaches the wine at its optimal ripeness. With direct pressing and flotation decantation, a clean must for alcoholic fermentation is preserved. This process occurs at 16ºC for 9 days, maintaining freshness and fruity aromas. Subsequently, the wine is divided into two parts: half ages in French oak barrels (60%) and American (40%), while the other half remains in stainless steel tanks. This barrel aging, combined with malolactic fermentation, contributes to a rounder texture and a more enveloping character of the wine. The result is a young wine with aging that is distinguished by aromas of red and black fruits, with subtle spicy notes and hints of wood, all in perfect harmony. On the palate, it is generous and balanced, with good persistence, making it an ideal choice for enjoying with grilled meats, cold cuts, and aged cheeses. For those seeking a Rioja red wine that combines freshness and character, the Viña Solarce Red Wine is an exceptional choice that invites tasting.
