The grapes for this Viento Aliseo Tempranillo Petit Verdot are grown in La Mancha, a perfect region for producing organic wines. The vines are now 10 years old and produce beautiful grapes. This red wine is made from two specific vineyards that are perfectly suited for Viento Aliseo Tempranillo Petit Verdot. Why La Mancha? The days are wonderfully warm in the vineyards, followed by perfectly cool nights for the vines. This creates a calm and balanced growing season. When the grapes are ripe, they are harvested by hand at night, after which they are sent to the press. Both varieties are pressed separately. The grapes undergo a cold maceration, after which fermentation begins at a controlled temperature of 28 degrees Celsius. After this, the final blend is assembled. Once bottled, the wine is aged for a few more years in the Dominio Punctum cellars before the winemaker releases the bottles.
Finally, we get to taste this wine from Viento Aliseo. It has a deep red color with a beautiful purple rim. The nose offers a lovely bouquet of aromas of red berries and cherries with a very light spicy note at the finish. This translates to a silky red wine with a subtle bite. Refined notes of ripe red fruit and some cassis fruit are balanced by a soft peppery note. The finish is sultry and long. This Viento Aliseo Tempranillo Petit Verdot is a delicious red wine!
