| Description: | Viña Eguia Tempranillo is a vivid cherry red. Its aromas include vanilla, coconut and balsamic notes with well-balanced mature oak and red fruit and a hint of licorice. The palate is full and elegant with pleasant finish. It is the perfect wine for everyday drinking. Winemaker Notes. Selected grapes come from the Rioja Alavesa vineyards with soils comprised of a mixture of chalk, sand and clay. The vines have a medium age of 20-30 years and are grown using the traditional gobelet system. Twelve days of fermentation take place and the maceration process is in temperature controlled stainless steel vats with daily pump overs in order to achieve the optimum color and tannin extraction. Malolactic fermentation is conducted in stainless steel tanks and then the wine is racked twice before going into oak barrels. The wine is aged in American oak for 13 months, with one racking. Serving Hints. This wine goes very well with all type of meats, especially beef, as well as with cured and semi-cured cheeses. Ideal for Spanish tapas and all kind of appetizers.
