Castillo Clavijo Organic Wine
D.O.C.a Rioja
Grape Variety
100% Tempranillo.
Harvest
Manual, in small cases during mid-september.
Vineyards
The central region of Rioja (the villages of Clavijo, Alberite, Villamediana, Entrena, etc) is characterized by soils that are very poor in nutrients. Together with the marked influence of the harsh Continental climate, and the vineyard’s south-facing orientation, it is an ideal terroir for organic wines and ripeness, offering expressive fruit driven wines.
Vinification
In stainless tanks at a controlled temperature of 26ºC and kept on its fine lees for at least 4 months before bottling.
Tasting Notes
A fruity wine, representative of the virtues of theTempranillo variety displaying intense floral aromas, with red and dark fruit notes and delicate hints of black liquorice. A fun and refreshing red wine, very versatile and perfect to enjoy every day favorites or any Mediterranean dish, such as vegetables, pasta, rice and, of course, all sort of tapas.
