Heraclio Alfaro Crianza D.O. Ca. Rioja
Nice colour, medium layer, delicate nose. Jam of red fruits and spices, integrated wood. Balance in the mouth, dense, soft, fresh and long finish.
WINEMAKER'S COMMENTS: We had the need for Heraclio Alfaro to be a wine linked to the soil and climate, related to the territory and the region's wine culture. This has been the source of our inspiration: Centuries of collective wisdom and practical experience, where winegrowers cultivated various traditional varieties and built their wines by assembling them in the proper way, thus obtaining wines richer in nuances, balanced and unique.
