Caprasia Crianza - Bodegas Vegalfaro

Ideally poured into a Bordeaux glass, this Old World red wine reveals wonderfully expressive aromas of blueberry, blackcurrant, mulberry and blackberry, rounded out by gingerbread spice, oriental spices and black tea contributed by barrel aging.

This dry red wine from Bodegas Vegalfaro is perfect for wine drinkers who like it absolutely dry. The Caprasia Crianza is already quite close to this, as it was pressed with just 2.1 grams of residual sugar. On the palate, the texture of this powerful red wine is wonderfully fleshy and dense. Due to the balanced fruit acidity, the Caprasia Crianza flatters with a velvety feel on the palate, without lacking freshness at the same time. The final of this red wine from the wine-growing region of Valencia, more precisely from Utiel-Requena DO, finally convinces with considerable reverberation.

Vinification of the Bodegas Vegalfaro Caprasia Crianza

The basis for the powerful Caprasia Crianza from Valencia are grapes from the grape variety Bobal. At the time of optimal ripeness, the grapes for the Caprasia Crianza are harvested exclusively by hand without the help of coarse and less selective machines. After harvesting, the grapes are taken to the press house as quickly as possible. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation follows in amphorae and small wood at controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by a maturation of 14 months in oak barriques.
