Vinos del Viento Montecito

Description

30-50 year old bush vines are dry-farmed and grown in the higher part of the Magallón municipality on calcareous clay and sandstone soils. The grapes were picked by hand during the second week of October.

The fermentation occurred in French oak vats with a prolonged maceration of two weeks. Afterwards, 60% was matured for 12 months in 225L and 500L French oak barrels, while 40% stayed in stainless steel for that time.

91 Points, James Suckling: “A fresh, fruity red with raspberries and cherries, as well as some wood. Tiny hint of vanilla. Medium body with firm, racy tannins and a fresh finish. Drink or hold.”
