Mazuelo

GRAPE VARIETIES

100% Mazuelo from vines over 30 years old.

VINEYARD/ORIGIN
Finca LA LASTRA, located 515 m. altitude, sheltered by the Sierra. Vineyard with North-South orientation and loamy-clay soil. The yield is approximately 3.200 k / ha.

ELABORATION

Selection of grapes in the vineyard and manual harvest in small boxes of 15 kg.
The Mazuelo has very specific properties such as its acidity, powerful tannins and deep purple color. Due to this and the typology of its soil, this vineyard provides us with the personality traits of the variety, such as freshness and a high aging potential. These characteristics make OE Mazuelo a round, powerful and nuanced wine.
It makes the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in new 400-liter French Oak Bocoy. Afterwards and before bottling, it stays a few months in concrete tanks for its final refinement.

TASTING NOTES
