Arnegui Crianza 2018

The Arnegui Crianza, a product of the Pagos del Rey winery, is a tribute to the exceptional quality of red wines produced in the D.O.C Rioja region. This wine achieves its deep cherry red color and violet undertones thanks to the cold maceration process. Fermentation of the grapes in stainless steel tanks brings forth a balance of red and black fruit flavors, which are then braided together with hints of wood, spice, and vanilla.

Post-fermentation maceration adds even more complexity and body to the wine. The 12 months spent aging in American oak barrels are what give Arnegui Crianza its unique flavor. The end result? Pair this wine with white meats or semi-hard cheeses to enjoy the enticing dance of its delicate tannins and perfect balance.

Arnegui Crianza's glossy smooth tannins and delicate mix of fruit and oak make it appealing to wine novices and experts alike. Aromatic vanilla undertones and a medley of crimson and black fruits welcome the palate with each sip. Soft tannins and hints of sweet spices highlight the wine's unfolding on the palate.
