ANIER Selected Harvest Red 2015

Founded in 1972 with a long track record in the region, Viñedos y Bodegas Gormaz is part of the founding group of 12 wine producers to receive an official Certificate of Origin in 1982.
It is part of Soria, a province in Spain which is

characterized by its Mediterranean-continental climate, extreme altitudes of 900m for grape cultivation, and a very particular rural environment.

Production:
The harvest is done selecting the oldest and with less yield rating vines. Its prefermentative maceration takes 3 days at 4ºC - 6ºC to help extracting the aromas. 
The fermentation is made at a controlled temperature of 28ºC during 10 days. Postfermentative maceration takes 2 weeks in order to extract the polyphenols.
After the malolactic fermentation done in new French oak barrels, the wine stays in French oak barrels (80%) and American, new (80%) and of one year use for 24 months.
