Tasting Note:
- Color: Ripe cherry red with bluish reflections.
- On the nose: It is powerful, with fruity aromas, hints of anise and fine wood.
- In mouth: smooth with sweet tannins, balanced and persistent.
Production and Aging: Alma de Acos was born from the need to maintain the high quality of ACOS, the parent wine. The wine comes from the youngest Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) vines from the vineyards on the Acos hill, the product of a careful selection of its barrels in La Horra, Burgos, in the heart of the Ribera del Duero. Even though it is a second wine, its quality is far superior to many crianzas and the bottles can be kept for a few years, thus improving its softness and texture.
Aging is 10 months in French oak barrels.
Curiosities: Bodegas Hermanos Sastre, S.L., was established in 1992. That was the moment in which the Sastre family decided to found a small winery where they would make wine from their first 23 hectares of vineyards. Since then, they have maintained a traditional method of cultivation and production with the utmost respect for the land, with which they seek to produce quality wines with a unique character. A character born from the land of Horra and its old vineyards, which offers the taste and pleasure that is finds in each vintage: richness, density, sweetness, elegance, race, purity and freshness.
