RODA
Represents of one the two profiles of the ripening of Tempranillo: the red fruit.
In RODA we look for the parcels that that year have ripened in a red fruit profile, with the expression of the aromas present in the edge of the glass, ready to be felt immediately; with sweet spice notes and a kind freshness. In the mouth the red fruit carries the importance, with a fresh, long, silky, voluptuous and continuous mouth pass. Before vintage 2002, RODA was called RODA II.

CLIMATIC CYCLE

There was only Roda II, there was not grapes for Roda I.

TASTING

Colour:

Open, red background and orange edging, a little more covered than 92.


Nose:

Intense and very fine, with clear notes of red fruit in the cherry range, traces of candied orange peel and ash. Very suggestive and enigmatic nose.


Palate:

Thin wine, even sharp, fresh, with lively tannins, with more presence than 92, with well-marked acidity. The fruit is very red and fresh with a clear spicy component. A little rustic but with a lot of life.
