Valenciso Rioja Laderas De Cabama 2019

Valenciso Rioja Laderas De Cabama 2019 is a premium red wine that is sure to delight the senses, crafted from a single site with 35-year-old Tempranillo vines. It's naturally fermented in concrete vats and aged in low-toast French and Russian oak for just 12 months. Bottled unfined, it's a fleshy and subtely oaked Rioja, with silky red cherry, liquorice and powdered chocolate noted red with a nip of fine tannins to close. This wine boasts a rich and complex flavor profile with prominent notes of blueberries, pomegranate, and exotic herbs. The taste is full-bodied with soft tannins and beautiful nuances of spices, black fruit, anise, and vanilla. The finish is intense and full, leaving a lasting impression.

What sets Valenciso Rioja Laderas De Cabama 2019 apart is its unique blend of Tempranillo grapes from the same vineyard plots, including bush vine material, and parcels of very old vine Malbec. This blend brings further distinctiveness to the wine, making it a true representation of the winery's commitment to quality and tradition. The wine is vinified in open fermenters and matured for 12 months in new and used French oak barrels. This process gives the wine its excellent color and allows it to develop its complex flavour profile.

This is a fresh and vibrant red wine which is an excellent introduction to Rioja.

“Powerful and concentrated, this has a great tannin structure that makes it seem rather young for its age. There's a very nice balance on the warm and generous finish that pulls you back for more. Drink or hold."  James Suckling
