| Description: | Bodegas Vetus was created in 2003 with the purchase of a 20 hectare property by the Anton family, proprietors of Finca Villacreces in Ribera del Duero and Izadi in Rioja Alavesa. The vineyard is planted with 100% Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo), in a poor soil which produces low yields of concentrated grapes. The hot and dry climate of Toro produces unmistakably big wines that many producers try to tame them with plenty of new oak. The harder path, and the one Vetus has taken, is to restrain?the natural rusticity of the terroir and to promote balance and elegance in the finished wines. To achieve this they are careful to?harvest grapes that are not over ripe, prevent excessive extraction during winemaking and employing a greater proportion of?second and third-fill barrels for the aging of their wines. |
