SALEFinca Sobreno Crianza Toro is made from 100% Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo)8 months in American oak barrels 6 months in bottle Deep-red cherry with purple tones at the edges. Nose: Intense aromas, good combination of black berries with toasted nuances from the oak. Balsamic and spicy underscore.Taste: Potent bouquet, meaty with very fine and ripe tannins. Long and persistent aftertaste.Soil typesThe soil is formed by sediments of sand, clay and lime-stone, which produces a dark lime-bearing topsoil, with fine and coarse sands.The vines are minimu 30 years old and planted at a very low density (900 plantshectare), with reduced production levels in the range of 4,000 kiloshectare.Winemaking and agingFollowing selection, the grapes were destemmed, crushed and the must underwent cold maceration at 10 C for four days prior to fermentation, which took place at a constant 28 C. The total maceration period lasted approximately 20 days.Finca Sobreo Crianza was aged for at least eight months in American oak barrels of less than four years. Another six months in the bottle rounded out its ageing process. Pairs well with any type of meat, bird, roasts, cheeses, seafood in sauces or pasta. Review: Biscuit-like aromas with grilled nuts and chocolate oak-influence, across ripe dark berries. The palate has a very succulent, sweet-fruit core with plenty of ripe mulberries and plums. Supple tannins. Drink or hold. (July 24th 2019), 92

The Finca Sobreno EstateIn the early 90's, a group of Rioja winemakers became interested in Toro, convinced that top class wines could be made from the local Tempranillo clone known as Tinta de Toro. The combination of Rioja know-how, modern technology, strict attention to detail and fine old-vines plantings has led Bodegas Sobreño to almost instant success in Spain and on the international scene. Bodegas Sobreño was founded in 1998. Just 7 years later, Bodegas Sobreño has become one of the best-known wineries in the region.  The winery owns 1,400 barriques (primarily American oak) and boasts a production capacity of 500,000 bottles/year.The principal winemaking consultant is Manuel Ruiz Hernández, one of Rioja's most respected enologists."One of best new estates in Toro; reds show intense fruit." - Anthony Dias Blue's pocket guide to wine 2006

The Finca Sobreno VineyardsFinca Sobreño currently owns 80 hectares (197 acres) of vineyard, of which about half are vines over 30 years old and divided in many small parcels. In addition, the winery controls 155 hectares of independently owned old-vines plots. The vineyards are 100% Tinta de Toro, pruned "en vaso" (bush vines), as well as double cordon Royat in the newer plantings. Soil types are alluvial with a thick clay subsoil, and a mix of sand and gravel. Yields are quite low, averaging about 4,000 kg/hectare.
