RED WINES

Palmira – Tinto Joven

It is a friendly, simple, fresh and easy wine to drink but without falling into monotony. Intense cherry red color with clean and attractive nose. Mix of black fruits, plum and blueberry. On the palate it is friendly with round tannins. Perfect for wine by the glass to combine with any tapas; as well as for a casual lunch or dinner. Versatile to drink with both white and red meats, stews, pasta, rice and even fish.

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.
