Product Description
Details
The wine Valderiz is made by Bodegas Valderiz, a family project based in Roa, DO Ribera del Duero. The winery’s overall approach to winegrowing and winemaking is guided by organic and biodynamic principles.
Made from 95% de Tinta del País and 5% Albillo, a native white variety, this organic red wine from Ribera del Duero is sourced from five vineyards: La Loma, Manvirgo, Juegabolos, El Carril and La Ladera, composed of sandy, clayey and cobbled soils with some limestone and sand outcroppings.
This Spanish red wine fermented spontaneously in concrete diposits, and the malolactic fermentation was carried out in concrete diposits and in barrels. Then the red wine Valderiz 2021 was aged in 50% new and 50% 2nd year 225-litre oak barrels of French (80%) and American origin (20%) for 24 months.
After that, this organic red wine was kept for 3 months in concrete diposits to further smoothen its edges.
We suggest decanting this Reserva red wine before drinking.
