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

An excellent vintage. 440 mm. rainfall during the growing season.

The winter was wet, early spring was dry and there was plenty of rain during the flowering season which caused millerandage and in turn resulted in open and well-aired clusters.

July and August were very dry. There was virtually no rain. There were no phytosanitary problems and almost no treatments were needed. Some light rains in September and October that allowed an excellent, although rather small harvest.

Temperatures were well below those of 2009 and the whole cycle was slower, with a delay of about 10 days. It was a cooler vintage, which left its mark of freshness and elegance in the wines.

Palate:

Great volume, with a very silky touch and fine tannin. The cocoa and the fruit are perfectly integrated, combining ripening and freshness. Excellent and elegant in the mouth, light, lively and voluminous at the same time. An important retronasal. A long aftertaste with a great pleasure feeling and the remembrance of the ripe fruit. Minerality and complexity. Great wine.
