The wine region of Castille-et-Léon
Cradle of great Castilian reds on high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) of the Duero. Tempranillo king (Tinto Fino, Tinta de Toro): powerful, structured reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and spices, firm tannins and length worthy of long ageing. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (fresh mineral Mencía). Lively herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda, cut grass and citrus.
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
