Bodegas El Hacedor presents the Red Wine Montevannos Majuelos Selección from the Denominación de Origen Ribera del Duero (Spain). The wine is crafted with a combination of Tempranillo (95%) and Merlot (5%), two varieties that complement each other perfectly.

The Tempranillo grapes come from vineyards located in Hontangas, San Juan del Monte and Quintana del Pidio, while the Merlot grapes come from the Valdepalacios plot. All the vineyards are situated between 825 and 850 meters altitude, planted on pebbled soils with calcareous composition. Most of the vines are over 40 years old, except for the Merlot which is 20 years old, guaranteeing excellent concentration and varietal typicity.

The aging takes place for 12 months in oak barrels, combining 75% French and 25% American oak, between new and second and third use barrels. This prolonged refinement brings aromatic complexity, structure and excellent bottle evolution capacity to the wine, without overshadowing the fruit. The vintage developed under favorable climatic conditions: usual temperatures for the area, absence of rain from September and marked thermal contrasts between day and night. These circumstances allowed for gradual and homogeneous ripening, with grapes that, although they didn’t reach great size, showed exceptional quality and optimal health condition.

In the glass, the Red Wine Montevannos Majuelos Selección offers a deep cherry red color, intense aromas of ripe black fruits, spiced notes, mineral touches and a subtle toasted background.

On the palate it is full, round, with polished tannins and a long, elegant finish.

Ideal for pairing with red meats, roasts, game, traditional stews and aged cheeses, this wine is designed for those seeking to enjoy a complete wine experience.
