2020 Pago de los Capellanes Ribera del Duero Joven Roble Winery Notes: "In the heart of Ribera del Duero, in the small vineyards of Valdeorras and on the high slopes of Fuentenebro, we put into practice the most beautiful way to love a place: we produce wines full of nature, energy and emotion. From the slopes of Manvirgo to the serene course of the Duero, the most renowned Designation of Origin zone. A cluster of plots of local vines in the countryside of Pedrosa, on the hills of Mambrilla, on the slopes of La Horra and Gumiel. This is our origin; this is our Ribera. VITICULTURE WITH RESPECT: Wine is made in the vineyard and it is in the vineyard where we put all our efforts to express with transparency and honesty the unique personality of the place. Following the best traditions of our origins, vineyard management is meticulous, with an awareness of our surroundings and committed to the diversity and richness of ecosystems. EXTREME CLIMATE: We are both an orchard of vines and a harsh high plateau, and this very striking contrast is clearly reflected in a climate of extremes. At the height of ripening, the unusual temperature range between hot days and cold nights explains the character of the grapes, which are subjected to efforts that gives rise to their impressive balance. Joven Roble is for everyone and for every moment. Fresh and vibrant, while at the same time complete and full of energy. A clear, affable, open and solid character. We take its production very seriously to obtain a blissfully satisfying wine with every vintage. ORIGIN: Grapes from vineyards with an average age of 25 years selected in the towns of Pedrosa de Duero, La Horra and Gumiel del Mercado. VITICULTURE: 100% Tempranillo vines in clay limestone soils, poor in organic matter and of very low fertility. AGEING: 5 months in 300-litre French oak barrels." Sale: Only $17.99! |
