ABOUT THIS WINE
Origen de Resalte 2015 is a 100% Tempranillo red wine from the Ribera del Duero DO in Spain, produced by Bodegas Resalte de Peñafiel. The wine's complexity is derived from a blend of grapes sourced from six distinct towns within the region: Peñafiel, Roa, Pedrosa, Quintana del Pidio, Fuentenebro, and Moradillo. Each parcel is vinified separately to preserve its unique character before being artfully combined. Bodegas Resalte de Peñafiel, established in 2000, aims to produce high-quality wines by integrating modern technology with traditional winemaking practices. The winery's emblem, the highest battlement of Peñafiel Castle, signifies its deep roots and commitment to the Ribera del Duero region.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Origen de Resalte 2015 is produced by Bodegas Resalte de Peñafiel using 100% Tempranillo grapes from vines aged 30 years or older. The wine is a blend of fruit from six different towns within Ribera del Duero, with each town's grapes vinified separately to capture distinct terroir characteristics. Modern winemaking equipment is utilized alongside traditional methods, including gravity-fed transport of musts. The wine is aged in a mix of French (70%) and American (30%) oak barrels from multiple cooperages, with different toast levels and barrel renewal every 3-4 years. This process aims to enhance the wine's virtues and achieve a harmonious blend.
