Baron de Chirel Rioja Verdejo Vinas Centenarias Rueda is sourced from 100 year old vines, ungrafted, on pre-phylloxera stocks from the Aldeanueva del Codonal and Aldehuela districts. Aged for 8 months in 3,000 litre Austrian oak casks to get right amount of fine wood to give the wine a greater impact, more depth, while respecting the essential character of the grape. The wine created has a dense mouth-feel, long and full of flavours. Its natural acidity, thanks to the altitude of the plots, some of them at 900 metres, ensures it will continue to develop well in the bottle. |
