The Bruñal grapes with which this wine is made are originally from the Arribes del Duero and have been adapted with excellent results to the terroir of the La Seca vineyards (Valladolid). The soil where these vineyards are located is very poor and is composed of pebbles on the surface and a clay subsoil that provides mineral notes to the wine.

When the grapes reach their optimal level of maturity, they are harvested by hand and a first selection of the clusters is carried out in the vineyard itself. After the selection table, they are destemmed and vatted in stainless steel tanks, where they macerate with periodic pumping over to increase the phenolic and aromatic richness of the wine. Alcoholic fermentation occurs at controlled temperatures below 24ºC, and then the wine passes into French and American oak barrels where malolactic fermentation takes place. Then, after aging for four months in those same barrels, it is bottled.

Cherry red in color, with purple hues, it is a clean and bright wine. On the nose it has a great intensity of red fruit aromas that integrate perfectly with the wood notes of aging and the mineral touches of the soil. In the mouth it is fresh, with a very good acidity that is integrated from the beginning to the end. A very meaty and sweet wine.
