Product Description
Details

This is the new vintage of El Vínculo Crianza, one of the wine projects of the late Alejandro Fernández, the father of legendary Pesquera from Ribera del Duero. 

A varietal Tempranillo, as all of Mr. Fernández's wines, this Spanish red wine comes from DO La Mancha.

Made from old vines, it shows the potential of Don Quixote's land to produce quality wines.

Harvested by hand and selected in the cellar, this Crianza red wine from bodega El Vínculo was traditionally vinified and then aged for 18 months in American oak barrels.

After that, El Vinculo Crianza 2018 was aged for a further 6 months in the cellar prior to its commercial release.

Decant 30 minutes before drinking.

Appearance

The red wine El Vínculo is medium purple with a bluish rim.

Nose

Intense aromas of ripe black fruit - mulberries and bilberries - characteristic of the Tempranillo variety, with notes of aromatic herbs, sweet spices and toast.

Palate

Fresh and well-structured, this wine of El Vínculo has a very good acidity and some ripe, mellow tannins. Wil berries with touch of cinnamon and vanilla, all the way to a long finish.

Our personal opinion

A little-known wine from a well-known producer, El Vínculo Crianza 2018 will match perfectly with a lamb stew.
