The Tempranillo grapes are crushed and chilled for several hours before fermentation is started. Fermentation is temperature controlled (no higher than 28 degrees Centigrade) and lasts for 15 days with twice daily pumping over
Valliciergo Rioja Tempranillo has vibrant aromas of ripe red berry and cherry fruit, with a hint of spice. Approachable plum and damson characters on the palate are balanced by supple tannins and red berry acidity.
