Product Description
Details
This is a very special Spanish red wine from Rioja.
Produced by Bodegas Baigorri, Baigorri de Garage is crafted from the winery´s own very old Tempranillo vines, located at the foothills of Sierra Cantabria. Farmed following environmentally friendly procedures, these old clones of Tempranillo are more delicate than the modern ones, and have lower yields, but also possess a unique personality.
The grapes were harvested by hand, one by one, and went through an exacting vinification process. The selected grapes received a long pre-fermentation maceration in wooden vats. After this process. they were delicately pressed in a vertical presses specially designed for this wine.
This old-vines Tempranillo was then transferred into French oak barrels, while remaining in contact with its lees. Then this wine from the Rioja Alavesa underwent malolactic fermentation and a subsequent 24-month ageing period in the barrels.
Drink Baigorri de Garage 2015 until 2025.
Decant 1 hour before drinking.

Excellent wine
Really complex and dramatic, with poise, grace and a bit of melancholy - a trait I simply adore. First-class.
