Viñas Jóvenes Crianza

The grapes come mainly from El Rincón and three other parcels near Briones, planted in 2001 on a calcareous clay site. The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented under temperature control in small stainless-steel tanks. The wine is matured for twelve months in used barrels that previously held Reservas, as well as in 500-litre bocoys. The dry, warm vintage brought good fruit and concentration with rather low acidity. The style is fruit-driven, juicy and structured, with ripe red and dark fruit, spice and polished tannins.
