Product description for Valdemonjas Abrí Las Alas – I Opened My Wings 2017 (bio)

Marian Henß:This Tempranillo struts its stuff with extreme elegance. Cool minerality spreads across the palate. The fruit is full and rich. The aromas of the nose are perfectly recognizable. Very fine-grained tannins lend structure and tension to the wine. Tempranillo’s ability to serve as the basis for great red wines has been proven time and again. This chalky purity, cool elegance, perfect minerality, and fine tannins combine to create a symbiosis that seems perfectly suited to the extroverted and gallant appearance of this wine. A real treat.

Info

The Tempranillo comes from the over 80-year-old Nogal de la Valera plot, located 800 meters above sea level. Just 350 bottles of this rare wine, which was aged for 19 months in the finest French barriques, will be produced.

Colour

Dark cherry red

Nose

Spicy and playful on the first nose, it prepares for the spectacle that follows. Dark, fleshy fruit practically pours over the connoisseur. Blackberry, black cherry, plum, and cassis come across wonderfully. Spices such as pepper, juniper, and a hint of cinnamon present themselves in the background. Some dark chocolate, coffee, and graphite also appear. Animal notes of some leather and roasted aromas from the wooden barrel, which are reflected in coconut notes, resonate. This subtle hint of coconut is reminiscent of great, classic Tempranillos—just in a contemporary interpretation.

Palate

This Tempranillo struts along with extreme elegance. Cool minerality spreads across the palate. The fruit is full and rich. The aromas of the nose are perfectly recognizable. A very fine-grained tannin lends structure and tension to the whole. Tempranillo’s ability to serve as the basis for great red wines has been proven time and again. This chalky purity, the cool elegance, the perfect minerality, and the fine tannin combine to create a symbiosis that seems perfectly appropriate for the extroverted and gallant appearance of this wine. A truly cinematic experience.
