This product is only available for purchase in sets of 6 units.
This Spanish red wine is a pure wine from the grape Trempranillo.
The brilliant red colour of the Castillo de Clavijo Tempranillo Tinto Rioja DOCa from Criadores de Rioja is reminiscent of a sparkling ruby. In the nose, aromas of wild blackberries are complemented by subtle vanilla and wood notes of barrique ageing. On the palate this red wine appears soft and juicy fresh, with well integrated woody nuances, lots of fruity impressions as well as spicy and balsamic notes. This red wine stands for the beautiful balance between dominant fruit and short barrique aging.
Vinification of the Castillo de Clavijo Tempranillo
The hand-harvested harvest of the Criadores de Rioja vineyard is destemmed, ground, crushed and the resulting mash fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The fermented wine matures for 6 months in French and American oak barrels before being bottled.
