Reserva Finca La Mina Ribera del Duero DO

Pradorey Reserva Finca La Mina Ribera del Duero DO 150 cl

Pradorey Reserva Finca La Mina Ribera del Duero DO is a red wine made from 100% Tempranillo from the Real Sitio de Ventosilla, Pradorey’s historic estate in Burgos. As a single-vineyard wine, it comes from a clearly delimited site within the Real Sitio de Ventosilla. The vineyard lies at approximately 800 metres above sea level and produces a Tempranillo with structure, ripe fruit and a distinctive Ribera del Duero character. The Reserva matures for 18 months in French oak barriques, followed by a further 6 months in a large oak vat. In the glass, it displays a ruby-red colour with golden highlights at the rim. The nose reveals a complex bouquet dominated by ripe fruit and compote notes, complemented by mineral nuances, toasted aromas and smoky accents. On the palate, it is elegant, with pronounced tannins, a complex structure and a powerful, velvety finish. The Magnum bottle is particularly well suited to meals with larger groups, slower maturation and cellaring in its original single-bottle wooden case.
