Product Description

Overview

Winery: Monte Aman

Monte Aman Tinto Cinco Barricas 2009 is made from 100% Tempranillo.
Fermentation of selected grapes in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature. Aging in American oak casks for 5 months followed by 3 months in the bottle before being released in the market.

Sight: Dark cherry red with violet hues. Nose: Subtle aromas of forest fruits, characteristic of Tempranillo grapes, on a light backdrop of hints of vanilla from wood ageing. Mouth: Full of fruity aromas in the mouth, with a smooth, honest passage. Well balanced.

"
Inky ruby. Ripe cherry and plum on the nose. Smooth and fleshy, with deep dark fruit flavors complicated by bitter chocolate and anise. A spicy quality adds lift and focus to the weighty fruit. Offers an appealing mix of power and energy and drinks very well right now."
- Stephen Tanzer's International Wine cellar (Sept/Oct 2011), 88 pts

"Aromas of mocha, chocolate graham cracker, and berry pie with a dryish medium body and a cedar and sour apple finish with firm powdery tannins."
- Beverage Testing Institute

The Monte Aman Estate

The Monte Amán S.L. bodegas and vineyards are situated in Castrillo Solarana. The municipal district and area belong to the region of Ribera del Arlanza where the tradition of elaborating wine and cultivating vines goes back to Roman times, in the III century, having vestige in the region of Lara and La Sierra de Covarrubias. In the Visigoth times, vineyards were cultivated in Quintanilla de las Viñas, but it is in the 9th and 10th centuries that the viticultural repopulation of Ribera del Arlanza is produced.

Our undertaking begins in 1985, with a constantly expanding grape plantation of 30has, consisting of 95% Tinta del país (Tempranillo) and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.

In 1989 the Barbadillo García family decided to build the industrial premises with modern installations, with the aim of producing quality wines. Later on the age in American oak casks.
