Casajús Barrica

Dark garnet red colour with intense, purple tones. Despite the special ageing and concentration, this wine is surprisingly fresh. Aromas of ripe raspberries and liquorice combined with soft vanilla from the wood. On the palate, volume balanced with freshness and softness and a fruity long finish.

Description

Ribera del Duero is an important wine region in Castilla y Leon, northern Spain. Its good reputation comes from the high quality wines made from "Tinto Fino" or the local red Tempranillo grape. The specific character of the wines is the result of good weather conditions (dry and long summers, cold winters) and soils of slate and limestone, which together create a unique terroir. The small bodega is located in the municipality of Quintana del Pidio within D.O.C. Ribera del Duero

The wine is produced from our minimum 50-year-old vines from 1 plot (Single Vineyard). The hand-picked grapes are carefully fermented in small barrels followed by at least 6 months of ageing in French and American oak barrels. The aromas are blended to perfection which creates a beautiful, balanced flavour....
