Product Description
Details

Produced by the Máximo Abete winery, the wine Guerinda La Cruzica Sin Sulfitos is a no-added sulphites Spanish red wine made solely from Tempranillo.

It is produced from two plots of vines, La Cruzica and Peralope, located in Baja Montaña, DO Navarra.

Harvested by hand, hte grapes were first macerated in stainless steel tanks and then they fermented spontaneously. After that, this natural wine was transferred into French oak barrels. There, the wine Guerinda La Cruzica Sin Sulfitos 2023 was aged for 4 months.

As minimal-intervention as it gets, this Tempranillo from Navarra is a rather interesting wine.

Since it opens tight, we suggest that you aerate this no sulfites added red wine some minutes before drinking it.

Appearance

The wine Guerinda La Cruzica Sin Sulfitos is medium ruby with a garnet rim.

Nose

After aerating it for some minutes to do away with the initial reductive notes, this varietal Tempranillo begins to sing.  Blackcurrants and violets, with forest-like remembrances, licorice and a dimly toasted and spicy note.

Palate

Crisp and nuanced, this wine of bodega Máximo Abete has a spirited character and a kind of "directness" which is typical of a low sulfites wine. Fruit-driven and very fresh, with a long finish reminiscent of herbs, blue flowers and black fruit.

Our personal opinion

Flawlessly crafted, the wine Guerinda La Cruzica Sin Sulfitos 2023 is quite enjoyable.
