Description

Bodegas Nexus · DO Ribera del Duero

100% Tempranillo from vineyards in Quemada and Pesquera de Duero, on high-altitude loamy-clay soils low in organic matter. It ages for twelve months in French oak barrels, which the house considers long enough to add structure without masking the fruit. The result is a Crianza at 14.5% vol.

The winery

Bodegas Nexus

Winery in Pesquera de Duero, within the Ribera del Duero DO, active since 1999. It works its own Tempranillo vineyards on loamy-clay and limestone soils of poor texture. The house separates its wines by vine age: young fruit for the fresher wines and low-yielding old vines for the most concentrated. Ageing always takes place in French Allier barrels, with the idea of not masking the fruit.
