A Tempranillo-led Rioja Alta red from Bodegas Montecillo, aged over 24 months in oak. The blend of Tempranillo and Mazuelo ferments in small stainless steel tanks, with malolactic fermentation in underground concrete tanks. Tempranillo spends 24 months in 80% French and 20% American oak, while Mazuelo ages separately for 20 months in French oak, followed by 20 months of bottle aging. The nose has ripe red and dark cherry, aromatic herbs, thyme, vanilla, sweet oak spice, cinnamon and a cured-meat undertone. The palate shows dark fruit, cherries in liquor, chocolate, licorice and blood orange, with velvety tannins and balanced medium acidity.
