Detailed description

Wine Making

Traditionally vinified, the grapes used to produce Pesquera Crianza 2014 were fermented without temperature control and macerated for over a long period of time.

Then, the wine was transferred into American oak barrels, where it was aged for 18 months.

Finally, the wine was aged for a further 6 months in the cellar prior to its release.

Tasting

Color       Medium-high cherry-coloured robe with a purple rim.

Nose      Notes of black and red fruit, combined with wooden notions of balsam, menthol, sweet spices, cocoa, coffee and toffee.

Flavour    Pesquera Crianza 2014 is strong and powerful. Slightly tannic at this moment, the wine shows a substantial potential for evolution. Prominent notes of chocolate, black currants and spices. Well-structured, with a long, pleasant finish.

We suggest that you decant this wine for about one hour before you drink it.
