VALDUBÓN TEMPRANILLO

Valdubón Tempranillo

Deep red in colour, very intense in structure, with notable touches of garnet. Full of ripe fruit, especially black plums. Bright and lively, and quite soft due to its acidity and low tannin levels. As it develops on the palate, the fruit evolves in dominance, while the acidity remains well balanced. It is light on the back palate, but with a fruity finish.

AGEING: Necessary to give it a touch of barrel ageing before it could be released
GUARDING POTENTIAL: 3 years ±, ready to be enjoyed now

PAIRING: Perfect with lamb chops, duck breast, charcuterie, eggplant parmigiana, or pasta with shaved truffles

Winery | Range | Bodegas Valdubón

Based in region of Ribera del Duero DO, Valdubón is one of the smallest wineries owned by the group – but its wines punch well above their weight, since then it has continued to produce wines full of character and complexity, all from specially selected vineyards on the northern plateau, on the banks of the Duero.

Bodegas Valdubón is located on the outskirts of Milagros, next to the Riaza River that flows down from the Sierra de Ayllón to its confluence with the Duero River at the bottom of the valley. Down there you can see the town of Aranda de Duero, in the heart of the Ribera del Duero Denomination of Origin.

The winery , founded in 1997 and bought by Ferrer Family Wines in 1999, has a particular focus on exceptional quality that has led to a string of awards, especially for Honoris de Valdubon, the winery’s flagship wine. Javier Aladro has been winemaker at Valdubón for 12 years and takes pride in caressing the land and working with Tempranillo, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes to create red wines that can age for years to develop a complex character.
