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

The year of mildew.

627 mm. rainfall, 384 mm. of which occurred in spring and only 5 mm. in July, August and September altogether. A widespread outbreak of mildew across the region during the spring and early summer reduced the harvest.

Remarkable maturation with dry and sunny weather. Late harvest, limited production of very high quality.

TASTING

Colour:

Deep burgundy red background with bright red hues in the rim.


Nose:

Very intense, red cherry aromas of great complexity mingling with a noble wood bouquet, subtly spicy, all in great balance. After airing the wine in the glass for a few minutes, the red fruit takes over, enfolding all else but showing a hint of cocoa in an elegant, refined manner.


Palate:

Medium to full bodied, enveloping silky smooth texture, ripe red cherry fruit with hints of sweet spices, very fine, fresh tannins, giving way to a fresh, fruity finish of great length. A complex, elegant wine with great balance between the ripeness and freshness of the fruit and the subtlety of the oak management. A wine with no troughs, showing well the characteristics of the 2007 vintage and it is fresh, Atlantic influence.
