2019 Conde De Hervias Trinidad Del Conde De Hervias Rioja
| Description: | Trinidad is the expression of three different single-vineyards in the village of Torremontalbo, on three distinct soil types, all planted to the original, ancestral clone of tempranillo: Romero, on pure calcareous clay soil in 1978, while Llano Alto on ferrous calcareous clay with river rocks, was planted in 1958. Lastly, Trinidad contains a portion of the 1874 pre-phylloxera Las Arenillas vineyard, planted on sandy calcareous clay soil. Each vineyard is harvested and fermented separately. Bunches are hand-harvested with a strict selection in the vineyard, then completely destemmed and crushed. The must is spontaneously fermented in 5000L in stainless steel with native yeasts. The wine is then aged for nine months in used (5-6 years old) 228L French and American oak barrels. Blending and resting occur in large, neutral foudres. Bottled unfined and unfiltered. |
