Amancio Sierra Cantabria Rioja 2008 0,75l

Amancio from Sierra Cantabria is an iconic Tempranillo sourced from selected single vineyards in Rioja Alavesa. The grapes come from old, low-yielding vines and are harvested carefully by hand. On the nose it reveals concentrated aromas of black fruits, plum, fine spices and noble oak. On the palate Amancio is dense, silky and very precise, with ripe tannins, mineral depth and an impressively long finish. Its powerful yet elegant style makes it a great Rioja for special occasions and extended ageing. A striking flagship wine that unites the tradition of Rioja with a refined, contemporary expression.

The wine is built on Tempranillo from clay‑limestone soils, with patches of fine pebbles on the surface—ground that stores heat yet lends a firm, chalky grip. Viñedos Sierra Cantabria treats the site in a parcel‑first mindset: strict selection, low yields, and patient élevage meant to let the vineyard lead....
