Produced by the Viñedos de Páganos winery, El Puntido is sourced from a single parcel of Tempranillo vines. A 25-hectare vineyard with clay-limestone soils, El Puntido was planted in 1975 at roughly 600 metres above sea level, in the heart of DOCa Rioja.
After a meticulous harvest carried out in October, followed by an exacting selection process, the grapes were destemmed and underwent a pre-fermentation maceration that lasted for 3 days at a constant 6 ºC. During that process, gentle pump-overs and punch-downs were performed on a regular basis.
The alcoholic fermentation of this Spanish red wine was carried out for a period of 10 days at 28-30ºC, with 2-3 pump-overs performed daily.
Then El Puntido 2017 was macerated for 8 days and then it transferred into new French oak barrels, where it completed malolactic fermentation and was aged for 16 months.
Finally, this Crianza red wine was aged for 6 months in diposits before being bottled.
It is advisable to decant this red wine from La Rioja at least 40 minutes before drinking.
This wine should have a long life in the bottle.
