Description

Bodegas Aragonesas · DO Campo de Borja

Old-vine Garnacha planted on terraces on the foothills of the Iberian System, close to the Moncayo, on very arid slate and red clay soils. Each vine yields less than a kilo of grapes. The wine undergoes 24 hours of cold maceration, ferments at 26 °C and macerates for ten days on the skins. It then spends four months in new French oak barrels, where malolactic fermentation takes place. 14.5% ABV.

The winery

Bodegas Aragonesas

Bodegas Aragonesas was founded in 1984 in Fuendejalón, in Campo de Borja, from the merger of the Fuendejalón and Magallón cooperatives. It farms around 3,700 hectares of vineyard on stony, reddish soils on the slopes of the Moncayo, with plots more than a hundred years old. Garnacha is the main variety, alongside tempranillo, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, syrah, mazuela, chardonnay, macabeo and moscatel. Production is around seven million bottles a year.
