Ribera del Duero Protos Crianza Red 2018 0.75L

Protos Crianza makes you taste the "terroir" of Ribera del Duero in every sip, taking you on a journey through a timeless region. Produced from 30 and 35-year-old Tempranillo grapes from the Burgos and Valladolid vineyards, its fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks and its maturation lasts 12 months in French and American barrels and 12 months in the bottle.

This is a cherry-colored wine with purple highlights that suggest youth. The nose is dominated by a high aromatic intensity, with aromas of ripe fruit well integrated with aromas of tobacco, sweet spices and pleasant toasted notes. It is a wine with well-integrated tannins, complex, tasty, balanced, full-bodied and elegant. Finally, the aftertaste is reminiscent of ripe fruit. Accompany it with grilled vegetables and meat, carpaccio and charcuterie such as jamon iberico.

It was 1927 when eleven childhood friends from different professions gathered to celebrate their families' viticultural roots and their love for their village, Penafiel. They had a dream, not only to make good quality wines, but also to highlight the importance of a forgotten wine region with a brilliant heritage. Together they would change the history of this region, introducing from rustic wines for personal consumption to a now world famous Spanish appellation, Ribera del Duero.

The original name of the winery was Ribera del Duero. In 1982, Protos authorizes the use of the brand "Ribera Duero", to establish the Designation of Origin. So they took the word "FIRST" from the Greek language and made it their new name. They were the first to see the potential of the area. In the vineyards of Ribera del Duero the grapes are 100% Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo) at an altitude between 750 and 800 meters. In 2020 it was distinguished as a "Best Winery" by Wines & Spirits magazine.
