Hacienda Casa del Valle Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Enologist: Daniel Martin Cestero

D.O.C.
Vinos de la Tierra de Castilla

Grapes:
100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Ageing:
The wine spent six months in new casks, with racking after three months. It was then fined using egg whites in order to keep its organoleptic features intact.

TASTING NOTES: 
Deep, dark color. The golden hues are proof of its time in the cask. Initial aromas of violets and ripe fruit giving way to hints of cedar, spices and smoked meats. In the mouth, it is full, with a long, lingering finish.

Additional Information

Bodegas y Viñedos Casa del Valle entered the Castilla-La Mancha winemaking scene through the Bodegas Olarra Group. In this new winery, the Riojan group is working to get the classification of "Vino de Pago", or Terroir wine, inherited from the culture of the French Châteaux. Thus, in Bodegas y Viñedos Casa del Valle, tradition, technique and know-how are united in the aim of obtaining the best grapes and of guaranteeing the process of making exceptional wines from the outset.

The starting point for the creation of this new bodega in Castilla-La Mancha was the acquisition of the Finca Valdelagua estate in Yepes (Toledo) by the Bodegas Olarra Group. With their know-how, the most advanced technology and three decades of winemaking experience in Rioja, the wine group's technical experts started to implement this major project in 2000.

The bodega is surrounded by 100 hectares of new vineyards growing the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah varieties, chosen for their great suitability for ageing and their well-defined personality and character.
