{"product_id":"gomez-cruzado-crianza-espagne","title":"Gómez Cruzado - Crianza - 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginating from Rioja Alta, this wine comes primarily from vineyards located around Haro, on soils of calcareous clay, ferruginous clay, and alluvial deposits, typical of the region's hillsides and terraces. The climate here is strongly influenced by the meeting of Atlantic and Mediterranean influences, providing conditions for slow and balanced ripening. The plots, divided between cooler and slightly warmer areas, allow for the blending of grapes that express freshness, fruitiness, and structure, in a style true to the Rioja identity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe grapes are hand-harvested into crates and sorted upon arrival at the winery. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine is then aged in oak barrels (primarily American, with some French oak) for approximately 12 months, and further refined in the bottle before release to preserve the fruity character and balance typical of the winery's Crianza style.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eripe red\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eblack\u003c\/strong\u003e fruits and \u003cstrong\u003eplum\u003c\/strong\u003e , enhanced by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches and \u003cstrong\u003espicy\u003c\/strong\u003e nuances of pepper and licorice.
