Product Description
Details

Produced by bodega César Príncipe, the wine 13 Cántaros Nicolás comes from DO Cigales, a region mostly known for its claretes -a rosé wine made from blending red and white varieties.

A varietal Tempranillo, this Spanish red wine was made from estate vineyards situated near Fuensaldaña, Valladolid. After a meticulous harvest, the grapes were fermented under controlled temperature.

After that, the wine 13 Cántaros Nicolás 2022 was aged for 8 months in oak barrels.

Easy-to-drink and food-friendly, this Crianza red wine is excellent with tapas, light dishes and barbequed meats.

We suggest aerating this red wine from Cigales some minutes before drinking.

Additional Information
Appearance

The red wine 13 Cántaros Nicolás is pale purple with a garnet rim.

Nose

Ripe black fruit, with a spicy and toasted twist and a remembrance of liquorice and balsam. This varietal Tempranillo from Cigales has an earthy and mineral core.

Palate

Cheerful and fresh, this wine from bodega César Príncipe has an excellent acidity and ripe tannins. Toothsome and fruit-driven, with a warm finish and a gently bitter and balsamic aftertaste.

Our personal opinion

Amazingly priced, the wine 13 Cántaros Nicolás 2022 is versatile and satisfying.
