100% Tempranillo.
14 maanden gerijpt op Frans eiken.
Maria Alonso Del Yerro is een complexe, krachtige 100% Tempranillo wijn. Rijp fruit, hout tonen, "roasted tones", een vleugje kruiden, mineralen, rijpe tannines en een mooie, lange afdronk.
Uitstekende combinatie met rood vlees, wild, boeuf bourguignon, paté, jamón en harde kazen.
Is nu al op dronk, maar kan zich tenminste tot 2022 nog verder ontwikkelen.
De optimale drinktemperatuur voor Maria Alonso Del Yerro is 16°C.
The Wine Advocate:
"The 2012 María is always produced with the fruit from two plots of vineyards, Circo and Violeta, fermented in 6,000-liter oak vats with indigenous yeasts and with a soft maceration. It matured in one-third new, one-third second use and one-third third use French oak barrels for 14 months. The higher ripeness, heat and lack of rain of the year were immediately noticeable when tasted next to the Crianza from 2013. There are notes of candied black fruit and a touch of peat, and it felt a little earthy. The palate has abundant tannins and a dry finish. This might need a little more time in bottle."
