Description
Valderiz is a pure expression of Ribera del Duero, born from the hand of the Esteban family, who have been dedicated to viticulture in Roa de Duero for generations. This wine is the reflection of a family tradition that seeks to transmit the authenticity of its land through respectful and natural methods. Composed of 95% Tinta del País and 5% Albillo, Valderiz offers a unique profile that combines the strength of Tinta del País with the subtlety of Albillo. The grapes come from plots such as La Loma, Manvirgo, Juegabolos, El Carril and La Ladera, where the vineyards grow on sandy loam, clay soils with limestone outcrops and boulders. This varied terroir contributes to the richness and complexity of the wine.
Winemaking
Valderiz is made by spontaneous fermentation in cement vats, without the addition of external yeasts, which allows the identity of the vineyard to be preserved. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in cement and barrels, which gives it a smoother and more balanced texture. The wine is aged for 24 months in 225-litre barrels, 80% French oak and 20% American oak, 50% of which are new. This process gives it a great ageing capacity and an unequalled aromatic complexity.
Taste
Valderiz unfolds a rich and enveloping experience on the palate. It has a silky entry, with tannins that are present but integrated, providing structure without being aggressive. Aromas of black fruits such as blackberry and plum intertwine with notes of sweet spices, vanilla and a balsamic touch that adds freshness. The barrel ageing is perceived in its cocoa and toasted nuances, while the finish is long and persistent, leaving an echo of minerals that evokes the terroir from which it comes. A thought-provoking wine, ideal to accompany special moments and hearty dishes such as grilled meats or cured cheeses.
