Sardón Red wine
Sardón is a wine in which, in its elaboration, previous work has been carried out to select the freshest and lightest soils, where the most aromatic grapes with good acidity are found. They are vines planted in vases, small plots chosen for their purity and character.
VINIFICATION: Our respect for the soil and the fresh and fruity character that we want to highlight of this wine makes us harvest each plot separately, always looking for aromatic maturity and preservation of natural acidity. The grapes are harvested in boxes and selected in cellar bunch by bunch.
The incubation is short and at low temperatures to seek a minimum extraction that allows us to preserve the most fruity and aromatic part of the wine. This makes the aging a combination of barrels of two wines, 1,200 L foudres, concrete eggs and tanks, seeking to refine each batch separately until the final blend in December-January 2016. We have not clarified the wine to preserve its purity, only a slight filtration before bottling in April-May 2017.
This Sardón 2015 stands out for its fruit intensity from the outset, featuring notes of red fruits, blueberries, red cherry, very fresh fruit and notes of thyme that give it a marked youthful character. On the palate, a good balance between the red fruit, the acidity and the ripe and soft tannins stands out. Its passage through the barrel has softened the wine but has not marked it,
