Region
The largest vineyard in the world is located on the central plateau of the Iberian Peninsula. Varietal wines are made with one type of grape. Airen and Tempranillo are the most characteristic grapes from this area, while other non-native grape varieties sucha as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, Viura, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay have excellent results due to the climate and terrain in this region.
Tasting Notes
Cherry colour with aromas of red fruits. Balanced on the palate, fine, light and soft.
Food Pairing
Goes well with pasta, rice, meat in sauce or gilled and salads with semi-cured cheese.
Technical Information
The grapes undergo strict controls on the vineyards to determine the correct moment to be harvested and transformed into a wine with the right amount of sugar and acidity. The must macerates in contact with skins for 2-3 days. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for 10 days at 22-24°C to reach the right balance between tannins and fruit.
