Arzuaga Crianza Ribera del Duero 2022
' The Arzuaga winery is in Valladolid, in the heart of the Ribera del Duero Designation of Origin region. The wines come from La Planta, an estate belonging to the Arzuaga family in Quintanilla de Onesimo, in the province of Valladolid. This is an excellent location for vine-growing, as the plants receive the sun and moisture they need for the grapes to ripen perfectly. Fundamentally, Arzuaga wines are made based on three premises: the soil, the climate and the orientation of the vineyards. The local flora and fauna coexist perfectly with the vines in La Planta. The flora includes pines, holm oaks and savin juniper, and, among the animals are wild boar and red deer. This coexistence clearly shows the love the Arzuaga family feels for the natural world. The estate covers 1,400 hectares (3,500 acres) in a wonderful location in the heart of the Ribera del Duero Designation of Origin area: its Golden Mile. It was at the beginning of the 1990s when, after buying La Planta estate, Florentino Arzuaga began planting vines, building the winery and, of course, making wine. The Arzuaga Winery has 210 hectares (520 acres) of vineyards distributed between the immediate surroundings of the winery and the natural area of La Planta estate. The Arzuaga vineyards enjoy a unique climate: sunshine and clear skies in the daytime and cool, damp nights. This climatic combination means the grapes ripen slowly but perfectly, producing healthy fruit with plenty of colour, full of sugar and aromatic acidity. In this region of Castile, where low fertility is a feature of the soils, the Tinto Fino or Tempranillo variety is grown, together with the French grapes Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. 80% of the vineyards are more than 20 years old. Bodegas Arzuaga also has vineyards outside the province of Valladolid, in Malagon, in Ciudad Real, where its Pago Florentino wine is made. '
Dagaz Kolwe Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Dagaz Kolwe Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a concentrated, terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignon from Colchagua Valley, grown on granite-rich soils that impart a striking mineral thread to ripe black-fruited power. Sourced from the Pumanque site near the Pacific, the wine combines freshness, energy and structural precision with a long, vibrant finish. Meet the producer Viña Dagaz is a Chilean estate focused on expressing site specificity and freshness from coastal-influenced vineyards, producing wines that balance ripe fruit, mineral clarity and elegant oak integration. Production Grapes are hand-harvested from the Pumanque vineyard, located 34 km from the Pacific at 238 m.a.s.l., planted on deep, permeable granite soils with abundant quartz stones. Winemaking begins with a 7-day cold soak at 8°C, followed by gentle fermentation. The wine spends 6 months in second- and third-use French oak barrels, then 12 months in untoasted 2,500-litre French oak casks to preserve freshness while gaining subtle structural complexity. Vegetarian and vegan friendly. Closure: cork. Tasting notes Intense, deep ruby in colour. The nose is complex with red fruits and spicy notes layered over pronounced mineral and graphite character from the granite soils. The palate is elegant and energetic, with good structure, lively acidity, juicy fruit and fine tannins, finishing long and vibrant. Food match Perfect with chateaubriand, bone-in prime rib, roast lamb, grilled king oyster mushrooms and strong hard cheeses. Grape 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
