Senorio de Librares "El Marujo" Crianza Rioja
ORGANIC / LOW SULPHITE
A rarity: a low-intervention and organic Rioja that sees time in oak (Crianza). Organically farmed Tempranillo grapes are fermented using ambient yeasts with minimal intervention, before the wine matures for 12 months in fine-grained French oak. A vibrant cherry red colour, with notes of both red and black fruits on the nose as well as underlying floral aromas. The palate has round, enveloping tannins and balanced acidity, and opens with elegant fresh fruit flavours before developing into spice and toasted notes from the barrel aging on the finish.
Señorio de Librares is a small, family run winery from the Rioja region that is the product of several generations of hard-work, with great-great-grandfather Pedro María Espinosa winning the gold medal at the Universal Exposition in Paris in 1878. The new generation at the helm has recently begun embracing a low intervention and environmentally friendly approach to winemaking, practicing sustainable and organic agriculture and using recycled cardboard for the packaging. Assiduous care is taken in production to produce high-quality wines that live up to their ancestors memory, and which will please both discerning traditional palates as well as young, modern audiences.
