The youngest wine of Obalo winery is a fruity, tasty wine with a fullness in mouth that gives its slight ageing in oak barrels. Its versatility and freshness make it perfect for the most casual appetizers.
The plot, which we call San Roque because it has the ruins of an ancient hermitage dedicated to this saint, is located at 630 meters above sea level, with a N/S orientation, on top of a hill. These characteristics allow the winds to clean the vineyard and provide grapes with excellent freshness and acidity.
From this vineyard, combined with other vines up to 26 years old, we make a young wine that shows the freshest expression of what we consider to be a Rioja wine.
Attractive red cherry color, very bright, medium depth. Red fruits such as cherries and wild strawberries, typical of Tempranillo, stand out in its aromatic variety, with a later presence of black fruit such as plums. A light spicy touch finishes in the end.
Smooth entry and a velvety mouthfeel. Good acidity typical of a fresh vintage and a balsamic finish that rounds off this seductive young wine.
Brief aging on lees in French oak barrels.
White meats and oily fish. Rice and pasta dishes. Creamy cheeses and foie.
