Corral del Obispo

Viñedos Singulares selects quality wines from different designations of origin in a project that presents and disseminates the variety and richness of autochthonous viticulture. Produced with grapes of the Mencía variety from selected bush vineyards on plots with a variety of soils, altitudes and orientations in the municipality of Valtuille. From a selection of different plots of between 60 and 90 years old with yields of between 2.5 and 3 kg per stock. Heavily influenced by the Atlantic climate.

Following a rigorously controlled ripening process, harvesting during the second half of September is completely manual, guaranteeing a grape in perfect health. Fermentation and subsequent maceration for between 25 and 28 days in traditional stainless steel vats. Subsequent ageing for six months in 5,000-litre French oak barrels.

Color: Closed, bright violet colour. Very expressive wine. 

Nose: With a lively nose and great aromatic potential, with notes of red and black wild berries, raspberry and bramble, liquorice and certain touches of game, mixed with nuances of fine wood.

Palate: It is powerful in the mouth, with an abundance of fine, fleshy tannins and with a great connotation of the soil from which it comes. It is a fresh wine, of subtle perfume and sensations of great complexity.

Pairing: It is the perfect combination for grilled red meats, lamb, cow’s cheese, vegetables and rice dishes with meat.
