Condado de Oriza Crianza is produced from Tempranillo (Tinta del País). Its grapes are carefully selected from 20-year-old vines in the famous village of Olmedillo de Roa in the province of Burgos.
Bright ruby red in color with a bouquet of intensely roasted spices, especially cloves and cinnamon, combined with subtle aromas of chocolate and ripe dark berries. These aromas are also present on the palate. The wine is juicy and fruity with ripe, well-integrated tannins, a medium body, and a long, velvety, sweet, spicy finish.
The grapes are carefully selected for maceration before fermentation for two days. Fermentation at a controlled temperature (25-28ºC) guarantees the achievement of varietal expression. The wine is then matured for 14 months in new American oak barrels before bottling. After bottling, it completes the aging process in the cellar for another 9 months.
