The wine

This wine forms part of the Rolland & Galarreta series, a project which sees two cultures unite, those of France and Spain, and the experience of two great names in this sector: the famous and highly regarded French oenologist and consultant Michel Rolland and the founder of Araex & Spanish Fine Wines, Javier Galarreta, one of the leading names in the business of Spanish wine exports.

For their Ribera del Duero label, Rolland and Galarreta have counted on the vineyard and installations of Bodegas y Viñedos Valtravieso; from this magnificent terroir, they have come up with a coupage of Tempranillo (85%) and Merlot (15%) aged for 10 months in French oak barrels and a minimum of 4 months in bottle before its release onto the market.

It's a powerful Ribera of great elegance, appearing an intense ruby colour in the glass. On the nose, it reveals appealing notes of cinnamon, spices, lavender and Picota cherry, all in a pleasant and smooth balance. On the palate, it comes over as concentrated and meaty. A complex wine, with silky tannins, succulent structure and an excellent finish.
