Ruby red color wine. In nose, intense ripe plum, sweet and fresh aromas, mint and licorice. In mouth, it is gourmand and fruity. The alcoholic strength is well balanced with its freshness and length.
Contino, the first Rioja château 1973, impelled by CVNE and the owners of the 62-hectare property located in the Rioja Alavesa.
De-stemming was followed by pre-fermentation cold soak for 24-48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation began spontaneously in the 12,000 litre stainless steel vats.
Pairs well with beef, lamb, veal, and poultry based dishes.
