CANTOVERA 9 months

Cantovera 9 months

This wine is an authentic expression of the Ribera del Duero, made from 100% Tinta del País (Tempranillo) grapes. This variety, grown in our region, is characterized by its small grains and thick skin, which contribute to a deep cherry red color and a remarkable concentration of fruit, distinctive of the wines of this designation of origin.

PRODUCTION
Cantovera comes from a meticulous manual harvest. Maceration lasts approximately 20 days, guaranteeing a perfect extraction of its flavors and aromas. Alcoholic fermentation occurs at 28ºC in truncated cone-shaped tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation in stainless steel. This method ensures a unique smoothness and complexity in the wine. Cantovera matures for 9 months, in French oak barrels (50%) and American oak barrels (50%). It then spends an additional 6 months in a French oak vat, where a weekly batonage process takes place. This method intensifies its body and flavor profile.

TASTING NOTES
This wine has a bright cherry red colour and violet hues. On the palate, it offers a balanced and structured sensation, with a smooth finish that leaves persistent aromas of cocoa and spices, reflecting the richness of the Ribera del Duero.

Cantovera 9 months is not just a wine, but the fruit of winegrowers who are passionate about their work. Each bottle reflects the fusion of ancestral techniques and modern practices. From the detailed attention to the vineyards to the manual selection of each bunch, we ensure that each sip conveys the essence and diversity of the Ribera del Duero terroir.
