2020 Taganan Tinto

The red 2020 Táganan Tinto comes from an even lower yielding vintage. It's a village red from different plots planted mostly with Listán Negro and Negramoll and also some Mulata, Listán Gacho (pink/rosé) and Malvasía Rosada. It fermented with 50% to 70% stems, depending on the plot, and matured in well-seasoned, neural 228-liter oak barrels for one year. They had lower yields and very concentrated grapes, but they managed to produce fresher wines with shorter macerations and higher fermentation temperatures. The palate is vibrant, long and fresh, with fine tannins and deeper and more layered. A real triumph. There's more finesse here and finer tannins. 2,400 bottles were filled in December 2021.
