  • Description
Vinification: en élevage 24 months in oak barrels (French and American) and 36 months bottle aging before marketing. The Gran Reserva is only vinified in quality vintages and is a selection of the old vineyards. In smell and taste we get a wine that blossoms as it gets air in the glass. Fresh red fruit type, kriek, cherry, plum supported by a finely spicy bouquet with a slightly sweet touch. The first contact with the mouth is a reflection of the smells. Structure with depth, a complex whole that opens up. Interwoven with fine acidity, minerals, discreet barrel aging and the necessary meatiness. Very long mineral full finish. 95/100 Parker Undoubtedly the star appellation of the last 15 years in Spain. This area, spread over 4 provinces in the center of the Duero Valley, has the perfect conditions to make top wines. The most famous wine of the Spanish vineyards also comes from this area: Vega Sicilia. Both terroir, climatology and tradition at the top level in a region where living is often extreme and difficult is not self-evident. The appellation has therefore grown enormously since its inception. In 1982, when the DO was founded, barely 5 private domains were active; today we count more than 200! The whole area is situated between 500 and 850 meters altitude; the ideal habitat for the Tinto Fino or Tina del País, the local variant of Spain's most famous red grape: the Tempranillo. The subsoil mostly consists of poor sandy soils, calcareous soils or aluvial pebble soils along the banks of the Duero. Ribera del Duero is an exponent of the Spanish continental climate: cold winters and cold nights and warm summers and warm days, with an extreme difference between the two. It is these extreme conditions that ensure that top wines can be made here. This wine cellar, a pioneer in Ribera del Duero, started its activities in 1980. The three brothers, Benjamín, Manuel and Adolfo Pérez Pascuas, are aware of the excellent potential in the vineyards planted by their father Mauro. It is decided to launch an ambitious project, namely to make one of the best wines in Spain. The name Pedrosa to their wines is due to the village where the bodega is located. Winemaker José Manuel Pérez, Benjamin's eldest son, has been an oenologist in this domain since 1989. He knows the perfect dosage of wood for the wines of this domain
