The aromatic, clean, modern and balanced 2014 Perfume de Sonsierra might be more famous locally for its square perfume bottle, but the content is much better than what most people might expect. It's pure Tempranillo selected from one plot at 470 meters in altitude in the Valgrande zone (it might be a different one depending on the vintage) planted 99 years ago. The grapes underwent a four-day cold soak and then fermented in stainless steel followed by malolactic and 16 months of aging in new French barriques. The wine has enough concentration and power to take the élevage, and it doesn't seem to be dominated by oak, even though it's present in the shape of spicy and smoky aromas and some fine tannins. This should develop nicely in bottle. 19,360 bottles were filled in July 2016.
