Javier Sanz Paraje La Encina

Cherry red colour, with purplish rim, clean and bright. Great intensity of red fruits in the nose, integrating with the toasting of the wood (French and American) and very mineral touches. The palate is fresh, with a very good acidity. A very meaty and gourmand wine.

Region

The Brunal grapes with which this wine is made come from Arribes del Duero (Salamanca – Zamora), well adapted to the terroir of La Seca (Valladolid). The soil where these vineyards are located is poor, made of a pebbly surface and clay subsoil, which contribute to the mineral touch of the wine.

Wine production

When the grapes have reached their optimum level of ripeness, they are harvested by hand and the first selection of clusters is carried out in the vineyard. When the grapes have been destemmed, they are placed in stainless steel vats and left to macerate, with regular pumping over to increase the aromas of the wine.

Maturation

Following the alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperatures below 24°C, the wine goes to French and American oak barrels where malolactic fermentation takes place and the wine is aged for four months.
