Baigorri de Garage Red wine
Experience the exceptional taste of Baigorri de Garage Red Wine from the renowned Bodegas Baigorri, crafted in 2016. This exquisite wine showcases a careful selection of Tempranillo grapes from very old vineyards, known for their limited yields and outstanding quality. Each grape is handpicked, one by one, through a meticulous selection process that employs vibrating sorting tables to ensure only the best grapes are chosen.
The winemaking technique involves extended pre-fermentation macerations in wooden tanks, allowing for the extraction of the grapes’ primary aromas. After the alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine transitions to pressing with a specially designed vertical press, enhancing its unique profile. Once pressed, the wine, along with its lees, is aged in new French oak barrels. These barrels are placed in specially controlled rooms designed to maintain temperatures around 20°C, which is crucial for the malolactic fermentation process. Following this, the barrels are moved to a climate-protected gallery, safeguarding the wine through the harsh winter months that can bring freezing temperatures.
The aging process is carefully monitored by the winery’s laboratory team, with a tasting panel deciding how long the wine remains in the barrels. This meticulous process, combined with the exceptional characteristics of the grapes, contributes to the limited production of this exclusive wine, making it a true gem from the winery.
With an intense cherry color, Baigorri de Garage offers aromas of compote fruit, herbal notes, bread, and figs. On the palate, it reveals a rich medley of macerated fruits, prunes, tobacco, and subtle smoky undertones, all complemented by a touch of licorice. This wine is both flavorful and rounded, showcasing a perfect balance between the elegant tannins imparted by the French oak and the inherent qualities of the grapes. The finish is remarkably long and persistent.
Baigorri de Garage is versatile and pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, particularly desserts, grilled vegetables, meats, stews, and gourmet cuisine. Indulge in this remarkable wine and elevate your dining experience with every sip.
