FAMILIA PACHECO OAKED WINES RANGE
7 MONTHS OAKED RED WINE
DPO : Jumilla
Grape variety : Blend of Monastrell 80 % – Cabernet 10 % – Syrah 10 %
Vinification: Malolactic Destemmed bunches, uncrushed berries. Fermented in stainless steel vats, temperature controlled at 25-26 °C, wild yeasts, the maceration method “pumping over”. The finish wine is aged during 7 months in French oak barrel of 300 L. Some barrels are new, others are second and third filled. The key point is to make a wine with subtle oak flavours/aromas which should respect the fruit flavours of the wine. Each variety is matured separately. The blend is made at the end of the maturation period in a stainless steel vat. The final blend has not been under neither clarification process nor cold stabilization. Depth, surface, and sterile filtration
Vineyard location: Jumilla – Murcia
Monastrell & Syrah
Non-irrigated, ungrafted, bush vines, spur-pruned, hand-harvested, limestone soils, 40 years old (vines age). Altitude 800
m.a.s.l. The plot is called Navajuelos, located 70 km northwest from the winery. Low density (around 1.400 to 1.600 vines per hectare).
Cabernet Sauvignon
Trellised vines with drip irrigation. The plot is located at 380 m.a.s.l. on the valley “Estrecho de Marín”, southern
subzone of the DOP Jumilla. The vines were planted in 2008. Limestone soil. Cane-pruned vines. High density (1,20×3 m).
Alcohol degree: 14.50 % Alc
Serving temperature: – 16-18 °C
Tasting notes: Medium to deep intensity, ruby colour. Mature black fruit aromas (black plums, Blackberries, blackcurrants) coming from the Monastrell
are really well-balanced with the french oak aromas. Also, earthy and spice character. Great elegance of the nose where the typicity of the
Monastrell is really well-expressed. The contribution of the french oak is excellent. The wine on the palate is bold, rich, silky with a long finish.
Amazing balance acidity, tannins and alcohol. To sum up, a wine with typicity ready to drink now with a good potential for aging.
