Description of Finca San Martin Crianza
Finca San Martin is single-variety wine aged at the Torre de Oña winery. Made with 100% Tempranillo grapes that surround the winery in Paganos-Laguardia, it captures the essence of the Rioja Alavesa, with very fresh fruit, acidity and an excellent balance that surprises in a crianza. Finca San Martín's aging process lasts about 16 months and the wine is stored during that time in semi-new French oak barrels. The versatility of Finca San Martin Crianza allows it to accompany a wide variety of food pairings, from semi-cured cheeses to sausages and red meat, whether stewed or grilled.Ideal pairing
