La Fleur VivaltuS | freshness and elegance

ASSEMBLAGE: Tempranillo (98%), Cabernet Sauvignon (1%), Merlot (1%)

DENOMINATION OF ORIGIN: DO Ribera del Duero

VINEYARDS: Vines between 70 and 100 years old, at an altitude of between 850 and 1000 metres above sea level. 

WINEMAKING: After a triple selection of the grapes, each plot is individually vinified. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts and with minimum intervention. Assemblage after malolactic fermentation by Jean Claude and Jeff Berrouet together with the winery's technical team, and then transferred to barrels.

AGEING: 90% of the volume 10 months in extra fine grain French oak barrels (12% new barrels); 10% of the volume in Italian terracotta amphora.

TASTING: Explosive nose, with great presence of red and black fruits and some floral notes. Spicy and balsamic hints (undergrowth, thyme, rosemary...) that enhance this fruit of enormous quality. In the palate we find a lot of freshness and tension, a smooth and silky wine, very complex and with a magnificent acidity and freshness that invites us to take another sip. Long, elegant and balanced finish. Atlantic vintage which is reflected in the freshness and fruitiness of this wine.Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
