History
Marqués de la Concordia Crianza can be considered the most gastronomic version of Rioja Santiago, ideally sold by the glass and for pairing in stores. It is appreciated by consumers who prefer a wine with a solid aging. However, the general style is characterized by being fruity and is recognized as a modern Rioja.
Elaboration
The harvest comes from selected slopes with vines with an average age of 20 years. The roots of the vine have grown deep into the calcareous clayey soil, which allows slow maturation and grants persistence and depth. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a maximum temperature of 26ºC. The wine is aged in new French and American oak barrels (225L) for twelve months to integrate and round off the already velvety tannins.
pairing
Substantial stews, entrecote, veal, lamb and pork chops. Cured cheeses such as Hacienda Zorita sheep cheese (Salamanca), and Iberian ham.
