Tasting notes

WINEMAKING: This wine has been made in our cellar “Viticultores de SanJuan” located in the little village of SanJuan, in Requena.
Bobal 100% . Fermentation in barrels of French oak (500liters, open on top). A part of the grapes keep their stem during fermentation.
Ageing in tanks of raw concrete.
COLOR: Intense ripe cherry red with violet tinges.
AROMA: Expressive fresh fruit, characteristic of the Bobal grape variety, with the singularity of the raw concrete of our San Juan cellar and the balanced complexity due to the fermentation and the ageing in the barrels.
TASTE: well structured and firm on the palate, tasty complexity.
