Condado de Haza Ribera Del Duero

The intense Tempranillo character is apparent in a concentrated, deeply colored red wine. Saturated red fruit grips the palate, leaving a long and sweet finish that promises excellent development in the bottle. Aged fifteen months in barrique. In 1987, Alejandro Fernández spied a neglected slope along the Duero River that promised to be among the most ideal vineyard sites in the region. Five hundred acres are situated on a contiguous south-facing slope, the predominantly-clay soils resulting in a forward and satisfying style. (from the vintner)
