Bodegas Valdemar Conde Valdemar Rioja Crianza 2017
Complex aromas of ripe black berries balanced with warm vanilla notes and a touch of subtle spice. Excellent, rounded structure on the palate with aromatic complexity lasting through to the finish.
Unusually for Rioja, all the Valdemar grapes come from the family’s own vineyards (almost 300 hectares), giving unrivalled control over the quality of the fruit at every level. Grapes for the Crianza are grown on alluvial and chalky-clay soils in Oyón (Rioja Alavesa), Logroño (Rioja Alta) and Ausejo (Rioja Baja). Harvest took place during the first week of October.
Following a traditional fermentation, the wine was aged for twenty months in American oak barrels.
