Radical 2022

Case of 6 bottles.

100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), from a single organic vineyard (Fuentelirio) planted in 1930, at 930m of altitude. The vines are also managed using biodynamic methods. Grapes are harvested late when the stems are fully lignified. Whole clusters are placed in an open tank with manual foot-treading. An infusion-like maceration for 22 days, and fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The wine ages for 15 months in 400 litre French oak barrels - two new and two second use - with battonage every 15 days. Not cold stabilized.

Only 1933 bottles produced, Alc./vol. 14.8%

Our Tasting Note: Deep, intense ruby/violet, with bluish tinges. Aromas and flavours of wild fruits - blackberry, raspberry - with floral/mineral/smoky notes. Full-bodied, structured, with a persistent finish. Great potential for aging.

Pairing suggestions: Pair with meat dishes - beef or lamb - (grilled or roasted), grilled tuna, grilled vegetable dishes, and mature cheeses.
