WHY BUY ME
2011 was the first vintage of this fabulous wine. The vineyard is ancient, first planted in the 17th century, but the winemaking is modern thanks to the talent of Jesus Madrazo who left the famous Contino to make El Sacramento, for just four vintages. One of our owner's favorite wines of 2019.
THE WINERY SAYS
Very intense aromas of plums, blackberries lead to spicy tones of chocolate and vanilla. Fresh and balanced with silky tannins and a delicate finish. Very long finish.
STYLE
A beautifully crafted blend of Tempranillo and 8% Graciano, this is exotic and smoky, full-bodied yet elegant. All the grapes are hand-picked and the wine is aged in new, French oak barrels for 17 months before bottling. The result is a powerful, yet perfectly smooth and balanced red. An absolute gem of a wine.
