Beronia Vinas Viejas 2017

Deep black plum colour. It is attractive on the nose, displaying prominent aromas of red fruit such as plum, and sweet spice – vanilla – over a very pleasant background of roast coffee. The wine is fresh and balanced on the palate, with a good body. The most prominent flavours are of ripe fruit and roast coffee, with mild touches of cedar wood. 

Pairs well with red meat, cheeses and Ibérico cured meats. 

Hand selected from oldest and most distinguished vineyards of Beronia. Fermentation upon 26ºC. Malolactic fermentation in the barrel, softening the texture while maintaining the fresh aromas.

The wine is subsequently aged for 7 months in new mixed oak barrels, made of American oak staves and French oak ends.

This wine is made from a selection of the best bunches of Tempranillo grapes grown in 50 year-old vineyards.

Beronia is an award-winning winery located in the heart of Spanish La Rioja. It was founded in 1973 by a group of business friends from the Basque Country who came to La Rioja for a vacation. Friends had a great love for food and wine and created their own gastronomic club or as the locals say, ‘’txoko’’. To enjoy the local cuisine, they decided to make their own wine focusing on Reserva and Gran Reserva style wines. The name of the company is connected with the history of La Rioja Alta region of Spain, where In the 3rd century, the Celtic tribe Berones lived.
