Red Wine Tridente Tempranillo 2020
Availability: In stock
This is the 2020 vintage of the wine Tridente Tempranillo, a varietal Tempranillo produced in the region of Castilla y León.
The grapes are sorted from several parcels composed with gravel-sand soils planted with vines 80 years old on average.
Picked by hand at dusk, they were first destemmed and macerated in stainless steel tanks. Then this Spanish red wine was fermented under controlled temperature for 20-25 days.
After that, the wine Tridente Tempranillo 2020 from Bodegas Tridente was transferred into French oak barrels, where it completed malolactic fermentation and was aged for a period of 15 months.
Pair this Crianza red wine with hearty meat recipes. This is a vegan certified wine.
Aerate this red wine from Castilla y León some time before drinking.

---|---|
Nose | Deep and well-defined, this old-vines Tempranillo suggests aromas of blackberries and boysenberries, with some smoky notes, hints of balsam and liquorice, a dash of spices and some notions of dry earth. |
Palate | This wine of Bodegas Tridente is bold and intense. Lively notes of black fruit and spices, gently sweet, enlivened by a steely acidity. Long, elegant finish reminiscent of cocoa, pepper and vanilla. |
Our personal opinion | A wine of the Juan Gil group, produced through its branch Bodegas Tridente, the red wine Tridente Tempranillo 2020 showcases the bolder side of Spain's best-known grape variety. |
