The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine In the Rioja Alta, Bodegas Cenicero creates a small gem of purity and fruitiness: a pure tempranillo with an insolent freshness that made our Selection Committee go crazy.
Wine A pure Tempranillo, aged in stainless steel tanks, the 2020 Red Rioja Viticola Finca Cienvacas is a chock full of ripe fruity aromas and freshness. It is a masterful red wine of great purity, with a modern temperament, from a high altitude terroir of clay and gravel. The fruit is splendid, between black cherry and blackberry, served by a juicy and velvety texture, with a rich and well acidulated palate. A deluge of abundant and fresh fruit notes, to be enjoyed now or for a few more years! A Selection Committee Favorite rated 96/100.
Vinification Hand harvested. Fermentation in open vats, regular pumping over. Matured in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats.
