Introduction: One of the last wines to arrive at the cellar. With him we wanted to seek the maximum expression of the mencía of old vines. To a certain extent, we are obsessed with providing you with the best raw material from the vineyards with an altitude of 600 to 700 meters. It comes from the middle parts of our vineyards in Valtuille de Arriba. Aged between 50 and 100 years, which provides a controlled production and slow and slow maturation.
It is a complex wine, as it seeks to express its character of mencía, to represent the environment where it grows, Valtuille de Arriba, with the freshness and structure that the place where we are able to give.
Elaboration:We carried out a cold pre-maceration in a stainless steel tank to later start fermentation with the action of its indigenous yeasts. Once fermentation is complete, we leave the fine lees in contact with the wine for a while, never more than two months, to prepare it before aging it in barrels. The barrel in this wine plays an important role, we do not want it to be intrusive so we use a low percentage of new woods. We want the wine to be protected and strong, so that time can coexist with it in harmony.
