100% Tempranillo from vines older than 50 years
10 months in new French oak barrels

Red wine made with Tempranillo grapes from vines planted in 1960. The vineyard is situated at an altitudeof 640m on the slopes of the Toloo mountain chain, with a North-South facing plots and clay calcareous soil. It is made in 225 litres barrels in a traditional way with destemmed grapes and whole grains. Subsequently dry ice is used to develop an
intercellular maceration as long as possible. During the alcoholic fermentation, which lasts 30 days, the juice is pumped manually. Afterwards, the wine is transferred to new French oak barrels for a malolactic fermentation at 20 degrees.

TASTING NOTES: Intense ruby colored wine with aromas of ripe fruit and spices. Its balance and freshness on the palate are positively surprising. Its unctuousness and its singular style stand out, with great potential in all its complexity is a true reflection of the terroir, which makes Finca La Canoca unique.
