Bodegas Obalo Rioja San Roque 2022 750 ML

Obalo is a unique creation that fully expresses the essence and distinctive fruitiness of Riojan Tempranillo, whilst maintaining a mouthfeel and structure more usually associated with more modern styled wines. This wine macerates for two days at cold temperature before fermenting in french oak tanks. Malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks followed by 3 months of maturation on the lees in 50% new French oak barrels. Enticing deep and bright cherry colour. It is intensely perfumed with a bouquet of red fruits such as cherries and wild strawberries that are so typical from a great Tempranillo. In the palate it is gentle and velvety showing vibrant red berry and cherry flavours. This young wine is rounded off by a subtle and yet seducing spicy finish.
