Sierra de Tolono, Raposo 2017

The nose is clean with notes of berries, wild herbs, and flowers, which are quite attractive. It's tasty and ripe, with a fruit-driven nose and a mellow mouthfeel. Tempranillo and a small percentage of Graciano are mixed as traditional in the vineyards.

Description

VINEYARDS

These two old vineyards are situated at 500 m altitudes. In this Valley, we get a plus of ripening because it’s more protected than in The mountain, in Rivas de Tereso. That means more weight in the wine, with the character of the traditional Tempranillo from Rioja Alavesa. Always keeping the freshness typical of Sierra de Toloño. Organic vineyards.

BLEND

Tempranillo and a small percentage of Graciano are mixed as traditional in the vineyards.

WINEMAKING AND AGING

Fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and aged in large oak foudres of 3000 liters a year. Not fining or filtering, maintaining the philosophy of minimal intervention in the vineyard and the cellar. 6.500 bottles produced.

People in Villabuena de Álava used to be called Raposo. This wine has the character and purity of this fantastic area. Crunchy blackberry and red cherry fruit segue into a palate that’s savory, dense, and serious with the potential to age. I paired this wine with other Rioja wines and found the Raposo reminded me of the wine in Ribera de Duro - more concentrated and warm.

Sandra Bravo started Sierra de Toloño in 2012, making wine from vineyards in Rivas de Tereso, a small hamlet in the foothills of the Toloño mountain range. An altitude of more than 600 meters, at the limit of vine-growing, brings great freshness. She can recover some old vineyards and produce a small quantity but high-quality wine. Tim Atkin MW named her a "Young Winemaker of 2019" to recognize her work.
