Garnet in hue, this opens with red fruit, cherry and light jammy notes alongside gentle oak and a slightly reductive edge. Dry and juicy, with firm, fine-grained tannins and good intensity, it's still young, but full of flavor, delivering a languorous finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e- By Joaquín Hidalgo on May 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur Tasting Note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDeep ruby core, vibrant lighter ruby red edge, slight brick. Nose is pronounced, black cherry, cassis, currants, subtle spices, leather, and dark cocao chocolate from the subtle and well integrated French oak used (only 33% new for 18 months).  The palate is med+ bodied, med\/med+ grain, good acidity, pronounced palate that is elegant and intense at the same time, fruit and oak trail into the long in the persistent finish.  Excellent modern style that is not that modern.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eDetails\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eGrapes:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Tempranillo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e 14%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eVineyards:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003evillages:\u003c\/em\u003e Ollauri, Briones, Rodezno, Haro and Villalba estate vineyards in the north of Rioja Alta between 1663–2000 feet; clay-calcareous soil;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eViticulture: \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eSustainably farmed and following organic principles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eWinemaking: \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e fermented in concrete vats using only indigenous yeasts; spontaneous malolactic fermentation March 2019 in concrete; aged 18 months in 100% French oak; wine transferred to concrete for 12 months to further age and settle before bottling; vegan friendly.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe most important thing at Valencisco is the vine.
