Beschreibung

The grapes for this Tempranillo by Rioja Vega, come from the best areas within Rioja for Tempranillo, and are picked at optimum ripeness. The grapes are crushed and the juice fermented in steel tanks for around 4 weeks. Once finished fermenting the wine is transferred off its lees after 1 month and then settled and racked several times before bottling. This is a young wine (Joven) made without oak.
Bright ruby red in colour, dark and elegant. The nose is forward, developed and mildly jammy, offering notes of boiled red and black fruits, spice and leather. Good structure, round and well balanced on the palate. Try with veal, roast pork and hearty veggie dishes such as nut roast or bean casserole.
Initially started as the dream of one man, Don Felipe Ugalde in 1882, this winery has seen ongoing growth and development over the years. Don’s aim was simple, to be one of the countries most prestigious Bodega’s. Today it is owned by the group Principe de Viana who acquired it in 1983 providing investment in new equipment, staff and in 2001 a new winery, 10km outside Logrono, complete with an underground ageing cellar.
