RODA I
Black fruit in a wine with character that maintains the freshness of the fruit.
RODA I is blended with parcels that that year have ripened in a black fruit profile. The deep black fruit, is almost always dominated by the plumb and supported by mineral notes, chocolate and balsamic sensations, that form an ensemble that slowly flows from the furthest side of the glass until it becomes huge in the entrance of the nose. In the mouth, the volume becomes evident, the fruit complexity nicely surrounds the mouth cavity showing the numerous and polished tannins. The wine gets longer making stronger the retro nasal sensation every time we breathe. A fruity and fresh sensation will last, inviting us to continue drinking.

CLIMATIC CYCLE

A huge drought in summer. During 14 days, the temperatures have risen above 30ºC. 482,5 mm. of precipitations in the vine-growing year.

An excellent response of the vineyards with depth roots, specially the old vineyards with no much production. A very rainy winter, a usual spring and a very dry summer.
