"…appelled to us with its fragrance and juicy flavour. Otton found it had dark plums on the nose: "it has lovely sweet mulberry fruit balanced with fine tannins. Resonant perfume and good length." This is another wine from the high country near Madrid which is again showing off tempranillo’s supple charm. It is best enjoyed while young and fresh." 94 points & Top Tempranillo under $80 -- Gourmet Traveller Wine, June/July 2008.
The nose is full of blueberry, dark cherry and blackcurrant, with a hit of mulberry in the middle. Plenty of warm climate tempranillo character here, rich and generous mouth feel and soft tannins. Earthy blackcurrant, plum and dark cherry fruit, with some sarsaparilla. Complexity isn’t the name of the game here, its all about the bold fruit. The wood is really well handled too. At this price you can’t go wrong. 87 points Dave Worthington TINTO Y BLANCO

Designed by architect Gonzalo Tello, the Bodegas is of ultra modern design, oriented to produce quality wines through the most cutting edge technologies, fully integrated into the landscape where it is located.

The batches of fruit are inoculated and put through alcoholic and malolatic fermentation in tank. Treated to a short spell of maturation in a combination of of 225 and 500 litre French, American and Hungarian oak barrels.
