Sierra Cantabria Finca El Bosque 2014

This dry red wine from D.O. Ca. Rioja is a single-varietal Tempranillo produced by the Viñedos Sierra Cantabria winery. It offers an aromatic profile of blackberries, licorice, and mineral notes, balanced by a concentrated texture, firm tannins, and a lively acidity.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Tempranillo
  • D.O. / Region: D.O. Ca. Rioja
  • Winery: Viñedos Sierra Cantabria
  • Soil / Altitude: Calcareous clay with pebbles
  • Ageing / Cellaring potential: 18 months in oak barrels

The vineyard

The grapes originate from Finca El Bosque, a vineyard planted in 1973 in San Vicente de la Sonsierra. The soil consists of calcareous clay with a sandy-loam texture and abundant pebbles, which contribute to the freshness of the vines. The estate is managed using organic and low-intervention viticulture.

Ideal combination

Winemaking

Following manual destemming, fermentation takes place in small oak vats with traditional treading. The wine then undergoes malolactic fermentation and ages for 18 months in new French and Central European oak barrels.

Why buy it

This red wine stands out for its great structure and contemporary profile, making it an excellent cellar-worthy choice that will develop beautifully over time. Its balance of concentration and freshness makes it ideal for pairing with fine dining.

Bitter chocolate, graphite, charcoal, pencil lead, Cuban tobacco and stewed boysenberry and blackcurrant aromas make for a highly complex and powerful nose. Following on that this is packed and intense on the palate , with smoky prune, leathery, crushed raspberries, toffee and licorice flavors that finish toasty and blackened. This is the upper league of a modern crafted Rioja interpretation!

Garnet in hue with a strong charred wood scent. I detected some dill there somewhere between that smoke. Palate is rather taught and dry with bitter chocolate. Apparently this stern palate is a reflection a cool 2013 Rioja vintage as my understanding is that this producer usually bottles wine that has riper black fruit. Good nonetheless.
