Murviedro Series Old Vine Bobal

Aromas of dark fruits and light spice. Plum and bramble fruit balanced by toasty characters on the structured palate. The tannins are nicely woven in, there is a chunky texture but good fruit intesity which balances this wine out nicely.

Made exclusively from low-yielding, old vine Bobal fruit grown in the area known as ‘Medio Dia’ - where the soil is chalk/clay with little organic content. This, together with long hours of sunshine, and large variations between day and night temperatures, result in very low, yet high quality, yields. The grapes are destemmed and gently pressed followed by a long maceration at controlled temperature. Malolactic fermentation takes place, and then the wine is aged in new French ‘Allier’ barrels for eight months.

Enjoy with roast lamb or beef dishes and robust enough to partner quite spicy food.
