The hand-picked fruit ferments naturally with indigenous yeasts in large, historic oak vats before aging for 3 years in neutral American oak barrels made in the estate's in-house cooperage. Multiple rackings each year and a light fining with fresh egg whites precede bottling without filtration, giving the wine time to settle before release. This is a traditional, spice-driven Crianza that blends vibrant fruit freshness with the cellar's signature old-world restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bright garnet red with ruby rim variations gives way to aromatics of dried cranberry, cherry preserves, leather, and soft incense. The palate yields focused flavors of red plum, black pepper, cedar, and tea leaf, backed by silky, fine-grained tannins and a bright beam of natural acidity. It displays a light, nimble weight on the mid-palate that keeps the liquid feeling fresh and energetic. The finish is long, dry, and savory, concluding with lingering notes of bitter orange peel and crushed stone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lopez de Heredia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50413934510320,"sku":"XM","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3678\/4368\/files\/Comingsoon.png?v=1768455940","url":"https:\/\/www.lessismorewines.com\/products\/r-lopez-de-heredia-vina-tondonia-vina-cubillo-crianza-2018","provider":"LESS IS MORE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
