Marques de Teran Rioja SE 2011

Rioja, Spain Marqués de Terán Rioja Seleccion Especial is the result of a manual selection of clusters followed by pre-fermentation cryo-maceration in stainless steel tanks, with gentle blending. This process is complemented with prolonged post-fermentation maceration to achieve a wine with full aromas of ripe red fruit and stone fruits. Its aromas of ripe fruit take us back to the typical aromas of harvest. Long and rich in the mouth, dense and well-structured yet not aggressive. Sweet, ripe tannins remain long on the complex finish. Marques de Teran is 100% Tempranillo. Aged 6 months in French oak casks and 2 months in the bottle. Enjoy Marqués de Terán Rioja Seleccion Especial with lamb chops, steak, roast pork, paella, and aged cheeses.
