The vineyard

The grapes are sourced from a sixty-four-hectare estate located in Quintanilla de Onésimo, adjacent to the Duero River. The poor and varied soils of this area encourage balanced ripening and contribute a distinct mineral complexity to the fruit.

Ideal combination

Meat

Meat dishes pair well with full-bodied red wines — they enhance the flavour and soften the richness.

Match

Cheese

Cheeses pair well with wine: hard cheeses with reds, soft and blue cheeses with whites and fortified wines.

Match

Winemaking

Following a manual harvest and double sorting of the grapes, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for ten months in French and American oak barrels of second and third use to preserve its vibrant fruit character.
