Cruz de Alba Red wine
Cruz de Alba Crianza 2018 is a remarkable red wine that showcases the essence of the Ribera del Duero region, crafted from the finest Tempranillo grapes. Meticulously harvested by hand at the peak of ripeness, this wine undergoes a traditional winemaking process that includes aging in new American and French oak barrels for 15 months, followed by an additional 10 months in the bottle.
The result is a wine of medium intensity with a beautiful cherry red color and a ruby rim that reflects its quality. On the nose, it initially reveals sophisticated aromas influenced by its aging, such as toasted coffee, leather, and a blend of spicy and balsamic notes. As the wine breathes, floral scents and the essence of ripe black fruits, particularly blackberries, emerge, complemented by subtle mineral hints of graphite.
On the palate, Cruz de Alba Crianza maintains a refreshing character despite a certain softness, allowing the fruit to take center stage. It presents vegetal notes intertwined with hints of licorice and a touch of minerality, leading to a medium-length finish that invites another sip.
Experience the elegance and distinction of Cruz de Alba Crianza 2018, a perfect companion for red meats, game dishes, or mature cheeses. Indulge in the rich heritage of Spanish winemaking and elevate your dining experience with this exceptional wine.
