Pago Capellanes Red wine

Pago Capellanes Reserva 2021 is a remarkable red wine from the prestigious Ribera del Duero denomination of origin, expertly crafted with the finest Tempranillo grapes. Each grape is meticulously hand-selected, collected in 15kg boxes to ensure quality begins from the vineyard. The wine undergoes a cold pre-fermentation process lasting six days, followed by a controlled alcoholic fermentation of 20 days, utilizing indigenous yeast from our best vineyards and performed with daily pumping over to enhance flavor extraction.

After fermentation, the wine experiences a slow malolactic fermentation, carefully regulated at a temperature of 20°C for 28 days, without the addition of bacteria. This meticulous process culminates in a 14-month aging period in fine-grain French oak barrels of 300 liters, during which the wine develops its character. It is then bottled without filtration or clarification, preserving its authentic qualities.

Visually, Pago Capellanes Reserva displays a brilliant ruby color with intense garnet highlights, suggesting its rich flavor profile. On the nose, it offers a refined complexity, with aromas of ripe fruit, cherries, blackcurrants, and subtle smoky notes, accompanied by a hint of licorice. On the palate, it reveals exceptional balance, thanks to the maturity of its tannins which contribute to its smooth mouthfeel.

This exquisite wine pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, making it an excellent choice for grilled red meats, rich stews, game, mature cheeses, and the beloved Jamón Ibérico de Bellota. With an alcohol content of 13.5%, it promises an indulgent experience with every sip. Enjoy the elegance and depth of character that Pago Capellanes Reserva 2021 brings to your table.
