Bendiciones 2016

Tasting notes of winery's winemaker

It is very fleshy and the environmental character provides very round tannins that enhance its feminine, subtle and fatty character. This wine is only made the excellent vintages, coming from the integrated production of the plot The Blessings, in the town of Boada de Duero.

The site of Blessings is based on a granitic entisol of alluvial origin that has given rise to a chalky sandy soil, of medium depth in which a clayish beta can be seen in its "C" horizon.

These edaphological characteristics together with its situation at 900 meters of altitude and the meso-mediterranean arid climate typical of the D.O. Ribera del Duero, confer a characteristic of "terroir" unique, which is expressed in the wine in the form of perfumed notes of white flowers and cosmetic nuances of cinnamon and cloves.

Made from old vines 100% of the Tinto Fino variety, planted in 1946 in the payment of Blessings.

Raised in French and American oak barrels for 36 months and matured in bottle from the date of bottling in September 2014.
