The biggest threat to these old vines are not the extreme conditions they face each year - whipping winds, blistering heat, bitter cold, lack of rain - it is rabbits. Cute as they may be, the destruction they cause is massive - taking out entire hectares of vineyards each year.

Vineyard

Cencibel, the local clone of Tempranillo, is uniquely suited to the harsh climate of the area with a smaller, more compact bunch size and thicker skin to withstand heavy winds. Bush & trellised vines (average of 50 years old) on limestone & clay soils at 750-800 meters.

Winemaking

Spontaneous whole cluster fermentation in small stainless steel tanks after which the grapes are pressed in the classical method - the lighter free flow wine is released from the tank (La´grima) leaving the Corazo´n – pressed juice from the natural weight of the remaining grapes in the tank.

Tasting Notes

Look: Lively and young cherry-colored.

Aroma: Aromas of red berries, cherries and hints of plum.

Taste: Medium-weight, juicy, young wine with fresh acidity. Flavors of red berries, cherry and licorice. The aftertaste is medium-long and pleasant.
