After a gentle fining Viticulture In our Páramos de Legaris we want to show the extreme personality of the Tinto Fino grapes when grown at high altitudes, on the flat extensions of the páramos (moors). These moors consist of limestone covered by red soils with an alkaline pH and high percentage of carbonates. We have selected 3 moors in different geographical locations: Pesquera de Duero (Valladolid), altitudes between 867 and 894 metres. This plot was picked on 27 September. Peñafiel (Valladolid), altitude 890 metres. This plot was picked on 4 October Moradillo de Roa (Burgos), altitudes between 958 and 973 metres. This last plot was picked on 18 October Vintage characteristics The first frosts arrived in October, at the end of the growing cycle. With regard to temperatures, we can talk about a mild winter. In earlyspring, temperatures were remarkably high and this accelerated budbreak 10 days. Low temperatures prevailed throughout the summer. It was not until the second half of August that highs returned to normal seasonal values. What was trulyunusual in this growing cycle was the weather in September and October, when temperatures were notably higher than usual, with hot, sunny days that finally produced well- ripened berries. Rainfall during the growing cycle was lower than expected. The harvest took as long as usual, although with peak volumes during the middle part in view of the threat of rain, which finally arrived on 8 and 14 October. Sensory characteristics Very intense dark-cherry red with purple hues. Intense nose of red fruit predominating over the toastynuances from the barrel. Fresh and tasty in the mouth, flavour-packed, with silky, well- rounded tannins. Legaris Páramos Páramos de Legaris is a commitment to the value of the origin and authenticityof the terroirs of Ribera del Duero. The wine is the fruit of Tinta Fina vineyards planted at 900 m above sea level in three moors with stonysoils in the towns of Moradillo de Roa, Peñafiel and Pesquera de Duero. The result is a wine that conveys the utmost expressiveness and varietal character. The region’s purest essence.
