Fagus Red wine

Fagus red wine from the 2022 vintage, produced by Bodegas Aragonesas, offers an exceptional experience for wine enthusiasts. Crafted from a selection of Garnacha grapes sourced from carefully tended vineyards aged between 40 to 50 years, this wine embodies the essence of its terroir. Each vine yields less than a kilogram of grapes, ensuring concentrated flavors that truly reflect the quality of the grapes. The harvest occurs in the first week of October, embracing a traditional winemaking process.

Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 28ºC, followed by a meticulous two-week maceration with the grape skins. After the alcoholic fermentation, the malo-lactic fermentation is monitored in French oak barrels, enhancing its complexity and depth. Subsequently, the wine undergoes aging in new French oak barrels, where it remains in contact with its lees, allowing for further refinement. The best barrels are selected for blending before bottling, ensuring each bottle of Fagus showcases the finest characteristics of the vintage.

Visually, Fagus captivates with its intense cherry-red color, enhanced by ruby tones, presenting a clear and bright appearance. The nose is met with an array of complex aromas, featuring vibrant notes of red fruits, plum, and cherry, alongside subtle mineral and spicy nuances, reminiscent of coffee, toasted oak, vanilla, and pastry elements. These scents are harmoniously integrated, offering an elegant bouquet.

On the palate, Fagus delivers a powerful and substantive entry, with a balanced and concentrated mouthfeel that exudes liveliness and excellent acidity. The finish is long and silky, marked by well-rounded tannins that create a seamless experience.

Fagus pairs excellently with grilled meats, roasted dishes, and oven-baked fish with structure. It complements stews, roasted lamb, civet, game dishes, and sheep cheeses, making it a versatile choice for various culinary delights. Elevate your dining experience with a bottle of Fagus, a wine that promises to impress with its quality and character.
