Nose of good intensity and very complex with notes of ripe fruit and spicy and balsamic tones. Aromas side toasted very suggestive with a wide range of cocoas, mokka and roasted. A bouquet that changes every minute showing great complexity.Taste
Very good structure on the palate with ripe tannins well balanced. Fantastic harmony between acidity and alcoholic strength. Good persistence.

Description of Sierra Cantabria Coleccion Privada
Sierra Cantabria Private Collection 2017 is one of the great Rioja wines produced by the Eguren family. Within the framework of the Viñedos Sierra Cantabria winery, Private Collection is a single varietal Tempranillo from 2 exceptional estates in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, Valgrande and Jararte, planted between 1957 and 1959. Clay loam soils with limestone content, 4 hectares in total with an average altitude of 500 metres.
The Private Collection is made from a combination of destemmed grapes and whole bunches of grapes and then aged for 18 months in French and American oak barrels. A wine that has received the applause of the great prescribers with high scores from Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator and Proensa. A red wine with good fruit concentration, and complex notes of roasted coffee, cocoa and spices, with a long and persistent mouth, and very balanced thanks to its acidity.
