Pruno, Finca Villacreces, Ribera del Duero
Product Information
An exceptional red wine that beautifully showcases the elegance of its terroir. A blend of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine captivates with its vibrant aromas of dark fruit, complemented by subtle earthy undertones and hints of spice. The mouthfeel is smooth and well-rounded, thanks to 12 months of ageing in neutral French oak, which allows the wine's natural character to shine through. The palate reveals a refreshing style that balances rich fruit flavours with a bright acidity, leading to a long, satisfying finish that reflects its sandy gravel and clay over sand terroir.
Born from the Anton family’s dedicated work at Finca Villacreces, this wine is a testament to their commitment to organic farming and sustainable practices. Since acquiring the estate in 2004, they have revitalised their vineyards and carefully selected fruit from plots that thrive in the unique sandy soils near the Duero River, creating a wine that stands apart from the denser styles typical of Ribera del Duero. Pruno represents remarkable value, crafted entirely from estate vineyards situated beside the renowned Vega Sicilia and the prestigious Pingus, surrounded by ancient groves of pines. This delightful wine is not only a testament to the region’s potential but also a perfect companion for hearty dishes, making it an excellent choice for any occasion.
