Sierra Cantabria Finca El Bosque 2015

A dry red wine from D.O. Ca. Rioja produced by the renowned Viñedos Sierra Cantabria winery. It features a firm character with aromas of cocoa, clove, and graphite over a core of plum and blackberry, supported by balsamic acidity and solid tannins.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Tempranillo
  • D.O. / Region: D.O. Ca. Rioja
  • Winery: Viñedos Sierra Cantabria
  • Soil / Altitude: Clay-limestone with gravel, San Vicente de la Sonsierra
  • Ageing / Cellaring potential: 18 months in oak barrels

The vineyard

The grapes originate from the El Bosque estate, a vineyard planted in 1973 in San Vicente de the Sonsierra. The clay-limestone soil, rich in alluvial pebbles, provides a distinctive freshness to the vines, which are managed using organic and low-intervention viticulture.

Ideal combination

Winemaking

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

Why buy it

If you are looking for a structured age-worthy wine with a modern profile for your personal cellar, this is an excellent choice. Its balance of dark fruit and spicy nuances will accompany your finest dining experiences. You can buy Sierra Cantabria Finca El Bosque 2015 online directly from our shop.

Of course a very good Rioja. Smooth and powerful at the same time, but I missed a bit the fruitiness (maybe it’s just the matter of vintage of bottle), so to be honest I prefer Amancio.

Sierra Cantabria Finca El Bosque 2018 is a Spanish gem that dazzles 🍷🇪🇸. With an intense ruby color, it promises richness. The nose is a fragrant bouquet of dark berries 🍇, black cherries 🍒, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, it unfolds with precision—ripe plum, cassis, and a touch of cocoa. Silky tannins and a well-balanced structure create a velvety texture. The finish is long and satisfying, showcasing the wine's elegance.

Excellent! This vintage (2014) is 9 years old and still shows a dark ruby color. Aromas of leather, clean new oak, delicate cherry, and plum. Palate shows a quite balanced wine, elegant and full body. Very long finish. Highly recommended.

Cocoa, clove and graphite notes frame a core of plum and blackberry in this big red. Firm tannins and balsamic acidity support the broad texture. Powerful yet graceful, with an alluring balance of savory and fruity character. Bold, in the modern style.

Special red Rioja that shows character and finesse. Vanilla, cedar and tobacco in the nose. The palate is incredibly balanced but still robust, and is showing the silky like quality of great Riojas that can tame the oak and let the fruit shine through. 4.5+ with age

Great evening with @[1|24922112|Ralf Wein], pairing an outstanding Ossobuco with this amazing, full bodied and rich red from Sierra Cantabria. A big bunch of dark fruit with blackberry and blueberry notes, some cherry notes and elegantly integrated vanilla and oak flavors. Outstanding wine! Cheers - Salud - Prost - Santé - Saúde
