About Pruno

When none other than Robert Parker, one of the world's most influential wine critics, rates a wine as the best in its category, we all raise our glasses. Yet, what truly makes this moment even more remarkable is that the wine in question is not one of those exclusive wines with exorbitant prices... No! Pruno is a wine that retails for less than $20. A benchmark from the D.O. Ribera del Duero that has achieved something truly extraordinary: dazzling the great Parker and establishing itself as the finest Spanish wine in history for its value for money. An accomplishment that is not only worthy of applause but of celebrations.

Crafted by Bodega Finca Villacreces, one of the wineries belonging to Artevino Family Wineries, Pruno is a blend of tinto fino and cabernet sauvignon sourced from the 64 hectares they own, located right in the heart of the Golden Mile of the Ribera del Duero (Castilla y León). The vineyards are planted on loamy-sandy soils, at approximately 710 metres above sea level. As for the production of this fantastic wine, following the manual harvest in 15 kg boxes, the grapes underwent a double selection process, first of the bunches manually and then of the berries through a ventilation system. Subsequently, alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks before moving on to aging. Finally, the wine spends 12 months in two and three-year-old French oak barrels.

Pruno is a wine that demonstrates you don't need to spend a fortune to enjoy an excellent wine. A balance of fruit, freshness, and elegance that has captivated both experts and enthusiasts alike.





 

 

2021

Pruno 2021 is a red wine with a pleasant aromatic intensity. Notes of roasted cocoa and milky coffee emerge, accompanied by a subtle caramelized touch in harmony with its ripe black fruit notes. On the palate, it presents itself with power and a pleasing volume, reaffirming its fruity character accompanied by mineral hints. An intense, full-bodied, and well-structured red wine with a finish that reveals sweet spices and dark chocolate.
2020 Pruno 2020 is a red wine that on the nose offers intense aromas of red and black fruits in confit (cherries and blueberries) accompanied by notes of toasted cocoa and toffee caramel nuanced with a subtle mineral reminder. On the palate it passes fleshy and well structured. A powerful and wide red wine, with mature tannins and savory nuances of black chocolate and licorice.
2019

Pruno 2019 is a quintessential red wine. On the nose, it is aromatic, with hints of sour cherries, plums, dried herbs, and licorice. The palate reveals a medium to full body with velvety tannins. Succulent and chewy, it boasts a berry fruit profile. The finish is robust with jammy nuances. 
2018

Pruno 2018 is a supple red wine boasting scents of red fruit, hints of spice, and delicate balsamic and mineral undertones. On the palate, it is velvety, robust, and invigorating. A full-bodied wine with vibrant fruit nuances and a prolonged, exceedingly pleasant finish. 

 
2017 Pruno 2017 is an intense and balanced red wine. This vintage once again displays its excellent value for money. Expressive on the nose, with ripe red fruit and elegant spicy notes. On the palate it is fluid and full of personality, with a lingering finish.
2016 Pruno 2016 is a medium-bodied red wine from a vintage where the great production has managed to provide good fluidity to the wine. This wine has rested 12 months in the barrel to achieve a more serious and spicy profile. A good, balanced wine with an excellent price for pleasure.

Polished tannins and a kong and very persistent finish. An elegant and very tasty fruity wine to be enjoyed.
