Product Description
Details

The wine Valduero 6 Años Reserva Premium is a top-notch varietal Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) from Ribera del Duero produced only in exceptional vintages.

This remarkable Spanish red wine is sorted from a single vineyard called "Las Lomas", located at an altitude over 800 metres above sea level.

The 40-year-old vines are planted in sandy-limestone soils with very low levels of organic matter. Climate is extremely harsh. In summer, temperatures can reach a peak of 40ºC, while in winter they can go below -15ºC.

Harvest of this reserva red wine was meticulous and exacting. Fermented with indigenous yeasts, the wine was subsequently aged for 36 months in oak barrels of different origins. The process took place in a cave buried 30 metres underground.

After that, the red wine Valduero 6 Años Reserva 2015 was aged in the facilities of Bodega Valduero for yet another 36 months prior to its commercial release.

We suggest that you gently decant this red wine from Ribera del Duero 1 hour before drinking to enjoy it in its full glory.

10,000 bottles produced.

Additional Information
Additional Information
Appearance

The wine Valduero 6 Años Reserva Premium is medium garnet with some ruby tinges and some orange-coloured glints.

Nose

This varietal Tempranillo is remarkably deep and complex. Notes of toffee, toast, fine wood and Havanna cigars, combined with aromas of withered leaves, balsam and, on the background, some remembrances of black fruit, raisins, cocoa and dry earth.

Palate

Bold and meaty, showing both a remarkable vigour and a great balance. Velvety textured, this wine of Bodegas Valduero behaves gentlemanly and displays real depth, intrincacy and nuance. The earthy and balsamic remembrances are endelessly evolving and fascinating, almost a moving picture of the terroir. Excellent integration of tannins, alcohol and acidity, with a very long and elegant finish.

Our personal opinion

The magnificent Valduero 6 Años Premium 2015 is in a different league. The league of truly great wines.

This is a wine for a special occasion. Smooth and complex, with many layers and plenty of data to process. It moves, jumps, evolves, goes back and transforms. Outstanding.
