El Holgazán
On a special plot in Tubilla del Lago called “El holgazán” (The layabout), at 850 metre altitude is a plantation of 25 year old vines on clayey stony soils. Manual harvest into boxes. Intensely aromatic with aromas of red and black fruit, liquorice hints typical of the tempranillo variety. Integrated with notes of vanilla and toffee caramel. Medium bodied with sweet tannins. Long and persistent with an agreeable finish of black fruit. A typical offering from the Ribera del Duero, with a unique personality. HOLGAZÁN MOMENTS
