Señorío de P. Peciña Tinto Cosecha 2024

Hermanos Peciña was founded in 1997 in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, in the heart of Rioja Alta, and has grown into a sizeable producer working in the traditional Rioja idiom. This Tinto Cosecha is the estate's young, early drinking red, made from Tempranillo with Graciano and a little Garnacha Tinta from the D.O.Ca. Rioja. The vineyards sit on the clay and limestone soils of the Sonsierra, where the Sierra de Cantabria shelters the vines and a cooler, semi continental climate gives a long growing season that builds fresh acidity and bright fruit. The wine spends six months in oak barrels, a short ageing that softens the tannins and adds a light frame of vanilla and spice while keeping the emphasis firmly on fruit. The colour is a bright cherry red. The nose shows ripe red cherry, raspberry and a gentle savoury, spicy note. The palate is medium bodied, lively and supple, with fresh acidity, soft tannins and a clean finish that reflects the Rioja terroir. Serve at 15 to 16 degrees, lightly chilled if you wish. It suits roast lamb, grilled pork and poultry as well as tapas.
