This wine is only made in exceptional vintages and with very limited production that never exceeds 10,000 bottles.
The harvest is carried out by hand, with the grapes having been selected bunch by bunch before been placed in boxes of 14 kg. The 70 year old vines, from which this wine is made only produce 2 bunches of grapes per plant, imposing a deep garnet red colour to the wine.
A wonderful mixture of aromas and flavours, due to the meticulous selection of grapes, from Valduero’s oldest vineyards ( which are more than 70 years old). It ages for 48 months in oak barrels from 6 different origins, surrounded by the silence and calm of Valduero’s natural cave with constant humidity and temperature.
