Suertes del Marqués El Chibirique

The fourth vintage of the Listán Negro from a plot that tends to produce very elegant wines, the 2018 El Chibirique is only 12% alcohol after a vinification that was similar to other reds, with 100% full clusters in concrete with indigenous yeasts and, in this case, with a maceration of 24 days. The élevage lasted 11 months and was in used 500-liter oak barrels. This is the highest plot of the lower section of the property, with a northwest orientation. There is a touch more rusticity here, and in 2018 I found more finesse in La Solana. There is an herbal and very primary touch too that transported me to the wineries when the new wine is fermenting, delicate and tender. 2,200 bottles were filled in November 2019.
