Valenciso 2019 is an expression of the Rioja region that showcases the depth of its terroir. This wine is crafted exclusively from Tempranillo grapes and aged for 18 months in a mix of French oak barrels, with one-third undergoing new oak maturation. The resulting profile reveals pronounced aromatics of dark berries, alongside earthy undertones and subtle spice. Its balanced acidity complements the palate, exhibiting both freshness and structure. Valenciso, known for its commitment to traditional yet modern winemaking techniques, highlights the complexity without overshadowing the varietal character. This vintage reflects both precision and heritage.
