Castillo de Albai Red wine
Castillo de Albai Reserva is made with a hand harvest, the grapes go to stainless steel tanks where the must remains in contact with the skins for 8 days to extract all their color and tannins. Subsequently, alcoholic fermentation begins for 8-12 days at a temperature of 26-29ºC, followed by malolactic fermentation at 20ºC. Subsequently, the wine spends 18 months in new American oak barrels and another 18 months in the bottle.
High-layered cherry-colored wine. On the nose, aromas of candied fruit, cocoa and subtle notes of noble wood emerge. On the palate it is tasty, round and balanced. It's elegant, complex, and has a long aftertaste. A phase in which its sweet character and ripe fruit reappear in perfect coexistence with the oak.
Perfect companion for all kinds of meats, stews, cured cheeses or succulent dishes.
