Senderos de UKAN - Magnum

 Type: Red Wine
Grape(s): 100% Tempranillo
Wine Region: Rioja Alavesa, Spain

Tasting Notes: Senderos de UKAN is the result of a careful selection of Tempranillo vineyards from different villages in Rioja Alavesa. The grapes, harvested in boxes of 15kg, are then selected upon entry into the winery and processed by hand. Minimal intervention in order to achieve a balanced, fluid wine, full of fruit and freshness, ready to be enjoyed from the very first moment. These “youngest” vines, aged 30-70 years, deliver top-quality, dense fruit. Fermented in concrete vats with a touch of old oak, this wine is exceptionally pure, with mineral notes and a robust tannic structure. An excellent choice. 12 months in 225L French oak

The Vintage: A winter warmer than usual with high temperatures and a rainy early spring boosted the vegetative growth in the vineyard. The summer began moderately cold and wet, but then passed with normal temperatures and rainfall for the summer season. A further drop in the thermometer in September resulted in a long ripening period, which, after the harvest, resulted in balanced musts with great aromatic intensity and freshness.
