Dehesa de los Canonigos Gran Reserva
DO Ribera del Duero, Spain (85% Tinto Fino, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Albillo) 750mL Gran Reserva Especial 2001. Made from a comprehensive selection of the best grapes from our own vineyards of over 80 years old. Due to the excellent climatic conditions and the equally important good quality of grapes, supported by a careful control of the whole making process, we have been able to create this wine. For these reasons and thanks to the contribution made by a rigorous aging process in American oak barrels, this especial Gran Reserva wine has been highly recognized and awarded the MUNDUS VINI DER GROSSE INTERNATIONALE WEINPREIS GOLD MEDAL and 2005 MUVINA GOLDEN MEDAL in the International Wine Competition Presov/Slovakia. TASTING NOTES Very intense cherry colour with ruby glints, clean and bright. Elegant and spicy nose, with hints of fine oak and ripe fruit (vanilla, toasty, cacao and black plums) coming through. Rich and lingering.

Dehesa de los Canonigos Reserva
DO Ribera del Duero, Spain (85% Tinto Fino, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Albillo) 750 mL TASTING NOTES Morello cherry red with a good depth. Elegant nose, intense primary aromas of soft fruits well offset by spicy notes of weathered wood characteristic of a rigorous aging in American oak which nonetheless do not overshadow the fruit character. Powerful mouth, fleshy, very luscious, rich and silky, with lovely tannin structure and acidity. Intense in retro-olfaction, with fruity aromas, balsamic, liquorice, coffee etc. The pleasant flavours of the aftertaste are particularly noted on the finish as sensations are still intense and invite immediate drinking. Barrelled-fermentation period 24 months in American oak barrel of typically one-two years old and medium-heavy toasting. RD22.

DO Ribera del Duero

The art of winemaking in the Ribera del Duero. The story of the Ribera del Duero has run in parallel with the union of vine and wine, the fruit of the varieties that stud its landscape, the personality of its people and their culture.

The Designation of Origin as we know it today, came out of the initiative of a series of vine-growers and winemakers wanting to improve the vineyards and wine quality of.
