CLIMATIC CYCLE

The winter of 2021 will go down in history for Filomena, the great storm that collapsed Madrid for a week due to snow. In La Horra, a temperature of -13ºC was recorded on January 12.

Spring was also cooler than usual, which delayed budding and flowering by about 10 days.

In May and June there were large storms and hail, leaving more than 4,000 hectares badly affected in the Ribera, although they did not cause any damage to us.

The year in general was cool, with very dry July and August, in September there was some rain that helped the plant to finish the cycle and the grapes to gain some weight, but in general the bunches were small and loose. It was a fairly late year.

The harvest was excellent with high-quality wines, very aromatic, with volume and freshness.

Harvest date: from 23/09/21 to 08/10/2021

Precipitation: 316.8 mm

GDD accumulation: 1424.16

Nose:

 

Incredible fruity sensation, fresh blackberries and plums coming out of the glass. A very delicate interplay of fresh aromatic herbs can be appreciated. The oak is perfectly blended. The flavour of the wine can already be appreciated on the nose, fresh and fruity.

Palate:

 

 

It is voluminous, full, long and delicate. With caressing tannins. The blackberry and plum make an appearance, leaving a truly pleasant sensation.

It has the peculiarity of having the expected volume in a great Ribera wine and at the same time the unexpected finesse in a wine of this youth. The fruity, tasty and fresh sensation of an enormous vintage remains in the palate.

It is surely one of the best Corimbos so far.
