RED WINES

Palmira – 6 Months

A very ripe red with berry and chocolate character. Medium to full body and round tannins. Slightly one-dimensional, but delicious.

Excellent accompaniment to pâtes, foies and red meats.

A continental weather pattern in northern Spain makes for cold winters and extremely hot, dry summers. Important daily temperature fluctuations across Casto Pequeño’s vineyards adds rich flavor profiles to the wine. Harvest begins in mid-September in some sandy areas of Toro until the end of October in the highlands of Ribera del Duero. Once the bunches arrive at the winery, they are de-stemmed 100% in some cases, and 50-70% in other cases always depending on the plot.
