aliaga cuveé
Alcohol content: 13.5% VOL
Grape variety: 85 % Tempranillo and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon
from our Vineyard Viña Aliaga located at Ombatillo from Corella
in the heart of the Ribera Baja of Navarra.
Vinification: The wine is fermented for 6 days in stainless steel tanks at 28o C followed by maceration on the grape skin for additional 20 days, during which pumping over and punching down are carried out twice a day.
Ageing: 6 months ageing in new casks of American and French
Allier oak.
Tasting notes: The wine is bright, deep with black cherry colour. It
is complex, intense, with black fruit aromas and well structured on the nose, with vanilla and nutty flavours as a result of its ageing in carefully selected barrels. On the palate is smooth, rounded, very well balanced with good fruit intensity and complexity with velvety long finish.
Food pairing: It is an ideal wine to accompany red meet, game, or
cure cheese.
Serving suggestion: Between 17-18 C
