Finca San Martin Crianza

The 2021 Finca San Mart¡n is a varietal Tempranillo from the younger vines. It fermented in stainless steel and matured in 60% American oak barrels and 40% second-use French oak barrels for 16 months, during which time it was racked three times. It’s a typical modern red from Rioja Alavesa with the depth and completeness of the year. It’s fleshy and fruit driven, ripe without excess at 14.5% alcohol, with very good freshness and balancing acidity, glossy tannins and a gentle mouthfeel.
