Bodegas Manzanos Gold Label Reserva

A blend of four of the Estates' best vineyards: La Muga, a sunny vineyard of 40 years old Tempranillo vines in a chalky clay soil with round pebbles, at an altitude of 360 metres. It provides us with elegant grapes with flavourful finesse and noteworthy red fruit and liquorice. Poyatos, another sunny vineyard with 40 years old vines in a limo/limestone soil in Azagra giving fresh, elegant and concentrated grapes prefect for ageing. Los Molinos, Graciano vines situated in poor soil in San Adrián. This vineyard is defined by its high acidity, low yield and high concentration flavour. Los Quiñones, is our oldest Grenache vineyard and is located on the slopes of Yerga in Aldeanueva de Ebro. The soil is ferrous clay type and was planted in 1978. Year after year, it provides us with freshness, medium intensity coloured wine with an extreme delicacy from the Grenache grape at an altitude of 410 metres. The Grenache is fermented in 300 litre barrels with daily punch-down. The other varieties are fermented in stainless steel tanks and large French barrels. Maceration time is strictly controlled depending on the vintage conditions and variety. Malolactic fermentation is in barrels with a further 24 months ageing in French and American oak. A further 12 months age in bottle before release.
