About the wine
Treat yourself and your guests to the senses with the delicious Contador Rioja DOCa from 2010! The wine-growing regions of the Spanish winery Bodega Contador extend across the landscapes where the experienced winemaker produces this red wine.
Tasting note
The year 2021 began at Contador with a humid winter followed by a dry spring. There was rain again in June, which benefited the vines during a hot and dry phase in July and August. Contador thus obtained a harvest that left nothing to be desired in terms of quantity and quality. In keeping with Benjamin's typical lack of compromise, they even went so far as to sacrifice 15% of production for a green harvest so that the plants could put all their strength into the best grapes. All plots could be read at the optimal time. The result is wines that perfectly manage the balancing act between immense power and great freshness.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with fine cuts of meat, stews, mushrooms, game, lamb, aged cheese
Vinification
Manual selection and multiple selection. Temperature-controlled fermentation in open timber stands. Malolactic fermentation and subsequent ageing for 20 months in new French barriques, which Benjamin personally selects.
