The Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo) vines are over 15yrs of age, and grow in a number of sites near Fuentecén. After a first selection of grapes in the vineyard, they undergo a pre-fermentation maceration for 3 days. Alcoholic fermentation takes over 14 days at 21- 23ºC. Malolactic fermentation is induced during the latter stage of the alcoholic fermentation. The wine then matures for 7 months in new oak - 40% American, and 60% French with varying levels of toast.
Rippa Dorii Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Roble has bright aromas of cassis, redcurrant and violet. The palate is ripe and full with forest fruits, toasty oak and liquorice notes.
Enjoy with richly-flavoured pasta dishes such as lasagna or spaghetti bolognese, or ribs and burgers.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
