ELABORATION

Selection bunch by bunch in the vineyard. Low Bush vineyard.
Valduero Una Cepa Premium proves how the Tempranillo grapes from low bush vineyards can reach eternal life. Very low productions, circa 1000kg per Ha. Its production is 100% handcrafted and artisan: its fermentation takes place in 500-liter oak barrels. It is a unique wine: never ever touched by a machine. Long and patient aging in barrels of different origins for at least three years.

Vendimia manual, seleccionando los racimos uno por uno cuando llegan a

tempranillo procedente de un viñedo en vaso.

TASTING NOTES

Intense garnet color, it is a very deep coloured wine. Notes of black fruit, blackberry and fruit compote. An elegant wine, with a well defined structure. A great wine from Ribera del Duero, it achieves an amazing balance with its velvety touch and its powe.

Ideal service temperatura: between 18ºC and 19ºC.
