Jesus Madrazo Seleccion Especial - Red Wine

Jesús Madrazo Seleccion Especial - Red Wine is a signature red wine from Jesús Madrazo, an unmissable name in Rioja winemaking, integrated into his personal project. Produced in Rioja Alavesa, it results from a blend of Tempranillo, Graciano and Maturana, from the manual selection of the best bunches from three old vines, 35 to 40 years old, located north of Lapuebla and south of Laguardia.

Fermented and macerated in stainless steel tanks, this wine undergoes malolactic fermentation for 25 days in French, American, and Hungarian oak barrels, followed by 17 months of aging. In the glass, it presents a deep cherry color and medium-high intensity. On the nose, it reveals elegance and good intensity, with notes of red and black fruit well enveloped by a fine and discreet wood.

On the palate, it shows a very pleasant entry, silky texture and elegant passage, supported by good acidity and a balance achieved between the fruit and barrel aging. The finish is persistent, reinforcing the refined yet expressive profile of this red wine, which combines elegance and structure, with remarkable aging potential.

Decanting before serving is recommended. It pairs particularly well with meats, game birds, and roasts.
