Product Description
Details
Produced by Bodegas Arrocal, the wine Arrocal Selección Especial is a varietal Spanish red wine from DO Ribera del Duero sourced from a single plot of Tinto Fino vines.
Situated at 855 metres of altitude and composed of clay soils, the vineyard, called Pago Los Astrales, is planted with 45-year-old vines
Hand-harvested and scrupulously selected, the grapes were fully destemmed and cold macerated before being fermented in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature.
After that, this red wine from Ribera del Duero was transferred into French oak barrels and aged for a period of 18 months.
Finally, the wine Arrocal Selección Especial 2021 was aged for some months in the bottle before being released onto the market.
Aerate this Crianza red wine some time before drinking.
