The 2011 El Pedrosal is a ripe, intense, classical crianza produced with the fruit of 15- to 25-year-old, head-pruned Tempranillo vines on clay and chalk-rich soils at 844 meters altitude. The wine has a restrained nose, some austerity in both aromas and flavors, with a texture that is more reflective of the soil than the fruit, ending slightly warm. Drink now-2018.
The Perez Pascuas brothers have been producing classical Ribera del Duero wines staying faithful to their style irrespective of fashion or trends since 1980. The wines clearly reflect place, vintage and the house-style of early harvest and austere, long-lived reds. They work an impressive 135 hectares of vineyards and produce around 550,000 bottles of wine per year, raised in 3,000 oak barrels in their cellars in the village of Pedrosa de Duero.
