Valdehermoso Joven - Bodegas Valderiz

The Valdehermoso Joven from Bodegas Valderiz in Castile and León offers a dense, ruby-red color in the glass. Ideally poured into a red wine glass, this Old World red wine presents wonderfully expressive aromas of blackcurrant, mulberry, blackberry and blueberry, rounded off by juniper, Mediterranean herbs and green bell pepper.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with only 2.3 grams of residual sugar. As you would naturally expect from a wine in the premium entry-level segment, this Spaniard enchants, despite all its dryness, with the finest balance. Aroma does not necessarily need sugar. Powerful and complex, this velvety and silky red wine presents itself on the palate. Thanks to the balanced acidity, Valdehermoso Joven caresses the palate with a soft feel, without lacking juicy liveliness. The finale of this age-worthy red wine from the Castile and León wine region, more precisely from Ribera del Duero DO, finally convinces with a remarkable finish.

Vinification of Bodegas Valderiz Valdehermoso Joven

The powerful Valdehermoso Joven from Spain is a varietal wine made from the Tempranillo grape variety. The wine berries for this Spanish red wine are harvested exclusively by hand once they are perfectly ripe. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the winery. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Valdehermoso Joven can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for several months.
