Tradición de Aresan comes from Castillo de Aresan, a family‑owned estate in Villarrobledo, in the heart of La Mancha, Spain. The vineyards lie around 750 m above sea level on clay‑ and limestone‑rich soils, where a continental climate with warm, dry summers and cool nights encourages full phenolic ripeness while preserving fresh acidity. The estate farms organically, reflecting a commitment to sustainability and authentic regional expression.
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby with violet reflections, this blend of Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot shows intense, aromatic complexity. The nose reveals ripe black fruits and rich blackberry character complemented by toasted nuances and subtle spice. On the palate the wine is balanced and rounded, with smooth tannins, a harmonious fruit core and a persistent finish that carries both depth and freshness.
Winemaking:
The 2024 Tradición de Aresan is produced from carefully selected parcels of Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Grapes are harvested at optimum ripeness and vinified to highlight varietal expression. The wine’s structure and roundness are achieved through controlled fermentation and judicious use of oak, adding complexity while preserving clarity of fruit.
Food Pairing:
A versatile Spanish red that pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted meats, slow‑cooked stews, tapas featuring cured meats or medium‑intensity cheeses. Its balance of ripe fruit and structured tannins also suits dishes with tomato‑based sauces or root vegetables.
ABV: 13.5%
