DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Pago de Carraovejas sits in the Carraovejas hills near Peñafiel, in Ribera del Duero. El Anejón is its single-vineyard red, from one plot on the estate, and it is made only in the strongest years.
The 2020 is mostly Tempranillo with a little Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Grapes are picked by hand into small crates and sorted twice. The wine ferments with native yeast in small barrels and then ages at least 18 months in new French oak. It is powerful but fresh, with ripe dark cherry, plum, Mediterranean herbs, cocoa and a touch of smoke. Plenty of oak, but the fruit carries it.
Decant it for at least an hour and serve around 62-64F in a large glass. Grilled steak, slow-roasted lamb or a hearty stew suit it. It can also wait in the cellar for a decade.
Bottle size: 750ml
