El Vínculo Red wine

El Vínculo Reserva 2018 is a premium red wine from the renowned Bodegas Alejandro Fernández, hailing from the La Mancha region, renowned for its rich winemaking heritage. Exclusively crafted from 100% Tempranillo grapes, this wine embodies the authentic spirit of Spanish viticulture. It has been aged for 18 months in American oak barrels, followed by an additional 6 months of resting in the bottle, allowing it to develop a rich and complex character.

This exceptional wine is produced on a carefully managed estate of 52 hectares, with an average vine age of 50 years. The terroir consists of a unique blend of sandy and clay soils, contributing to the wine's distinct flavor profile. The climatic conditions of the 2018 vintage played a significant role in the fruit's development, characterized by an unusually warm spring and summer, followed by a very dry year. These conditions resulted in early budding and limited yields, leading to concentrated flavors in the grapes.

El Vínculo Reserva showcases an inviting garnet color with ruby highlights, presenting a clean and brilliant appearance. On the nose, it reveals deep aromas of black fruit intertwined with hints of licorice, complemented by sweet vanilla and roasted notes from its time spent in oak barrels. When tasted, the wine offers a fruity entry with prominent black fruit leading to roasted nuances and licorice. Its broad volume is balanced by sufficient tannins and acidity, providing strength on the palate and a long-lasting finish.

This wine pairs beautifully with red meats grilled to perfection, hearty stews, and small game such as partridge and hare. Indulge in El Vínculo Reserva 2018 for a memorable dining experience that captures the essence of Spain’s finest wines. Enjoy a taste of La Mancha and elevate your gatherings with this exceptional red, crafted with passion and tradition.
