Altos de Tamarón Gran Reserva
The selected grapes come from 40-year-old vines whose vines produce a maximum of 4 or 5 small, loose bunches. Complex wine with a balanced and harmonious palate. The grapes are carefully selected and picked by hand. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature between 26-28ºC to ensure optimum aromatic potential before undergoing a 10-day maceration process. This ensures that the wine acquires its characteristic color and polished tannins. Finally, the wine rests for 24 months in French and American oak barrels before being bottled. The bottles continue their maturation process for 3 years to guarantee a complete and harmonic maturity.
VARIETY. Tempranillo.
COLOUR. Deep cherry red colour with ochre hues.
AROMA. This wine exhibits elegant and powerful aromas on the nose, with black pepper, sweet spices and ripe plums.
PALATE. Gran Reserva wines often display a wide range of red and dark fruit flavors. You may encounter notes of ripe cherries, blackberries, plums, and possibly hints of dried fruit. Aging in oak barrels adds flavors of vanilla, toast, and sometimes even a touch of coconut. These oak-driven characteristics enhance the wine’s structure and provide a pleasant layer of complexity.
