The Tempranillo (86%) and Mazuelo (14%) grapes are vinified separately and matured for 28 months in both American and French oak barrels. The wines are then blended and aged for a further 6 months in cement vats before spending at least 3 years in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e At launch, the wine is 9 years old but still fresh.
