The Estate

Prieto Picudo is a widely planted grape in Northern Spain and is often blended with other varietals. Prieto in Spanish means ‘dark color’, here making reference to the color the gape adds to a wine, Picudo refers to the pointy shape of the compact bunches.

Wine Making

Fermentation takes about 7 days and the grape skin is left with the musts during that process; the maximum temperature will be between 25 and 26º Centigrade. The wine is then aged for 4 months in 225 liter French Oak barrels.

Food Suggestions

Pairs well with beef, pasta, veal, and poultry dishes.
