Notes from the Winemaker

 In the Ribera del Duero Designation of Origin, the 2021 vintage is distinguished by its high quality, being rated as "Excellent" by the Regulatory Council.

 In Conde de San Cristóbal, winter and spring were characterized by cooler temperatures than usual, especially in the month of January. After the heavy snowfall caused by storm Filomena, temperatures minimum temperatures reached 10ºC/15ºC, which contributed to delaying budbreak in approximately 30 days. This phenomenon avoided the risks of frost spring and led to the appearance of outbreaks on April 6. The months winter and spring rains were generous in rains, strengthening our water reserves. The summer was characterized by its aridity, with temperatures more moderate than usual and a marked thermal amplitude between the day and the This resulted in heterogeneous ripening in our vineyards. The 53.5 liters of rain recorded in September contributed to mitigating the summer drought and homogenized the ripening of the grapes. The wines obtained stood out for their chromatic expressiveness, a balance between alcohol, acidity and tannins, and an outstanding potential for aging.

 Elaboration

 The grapes are selected in the vineyard itself and picked by hand in boxes of 12 Kilos. After passing through the selection table, the bunches are destemmed at low levels revolutions to later enter the tanks by gravity. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a temperature controlled at between 20º and 24ºC for 9 to 12 days. Once the fermentation, the wine undergoes maceration with the pastes for 7 to 10 days.

It is a structured wine, with firm but silky tannins. Its passage through the mouth is enveloping, with a perfect balance between acidity and body. The finish is long, persistent and smooth, leaving a pleasant sensation of freshness.
