About Sierra Cantabria Crianza

Sierra Cantabria Crianza is a red wine from the Rioja region, and is produced by Bodegas Sierra Cantabria. This wine is made from only Tempranillo (100%) grapes, a variety the region is known for.
The grapes are taken from vineyards situated in the towns of San Vicente de la Sonsierra and Labastida.

The harvest of the grapes is carried manually, with bunches being selected at the vinyard before being placed on a selection belt at the winery. After, the grapes are destemmed and fermented at a controlled temperature between 25º- 28ºC using indigenous yeasts from the vineyards themselves.

Sierra Cantabria Crianza then macerates with the skins still intact for 16 days with 2 daily pumpings. Following this, the Sierra Cantabria Crianza ages for 14 months in American and French (from bordeaux) oak barrels, with rackings taking place every 4 months.

Sierra Cantabria is owned by the Eguren family, who over 5 generations have dedicated themselves to viticulture and agricultura. They relation with wine dates all the way back to 1870.

2019

Sierra Cantabria Crianza 2019 is a red wine that, on the nose, presents a complex bouquet of aromas featuring prominent black cherries, blackberries, and currants, interwoven with delicate floral and spicy undertones. On the palate, it is harmonious, boasting an inviting freshness that encourages continued sipping, and velvety tannins that gently caress the palate. The finish is impressive, leaving behind a pleasant and savory aftertaste.
2015 Sierra Cantabria Crianza 2015 is an intense, tasty and expressive red wine. This vintage further enhances the fruit above the toasted notes of its ageing. In the mouth, it is easy to drink, sharp and with a long and quite fresh finish.
2011 Expansive and flavourful. Delicate yet harmoniously balanced. Exhibiting robust tannins and a lingering finish that echoes the nuances of its aging process.

A cherry-red hue of medium intensity. Ruby highlights and a delicate tear.

Lactic nuances complemented by the presence of ripe red fruits. A symphony of spicy undertones accented by sweet and roasted hints.
2010 This wine is tasty on the palate with ripe tannins and a good balance between the acidity and the alcohol. It has a very fruity character which stands out among the other flavours (toasted, roasted, cocoa and vanilla) and provides the wine with a very interesting complexity.

Nice ruby red colour. Medium-high intensity with light orange reflections in the edge of the glass. Clean and bright.

Medium-intensity nasal aromas but still very expressive. Once the wine is aerated, abundant notes of red fruit, spices, roasted and toasted aromas are released, along with some hints of chocolate and light milky nuances.

Pretty ruby red colour with light orange glimmers on the edge of the glass. Medium-high intensity. Clean and bright.

Medium-intensity nose but very expressive. Once the wine is oxigenated, abundant notes of red fruit, spices, roasted and toasted notes appear, along with a hint of chocolate and some lactice nuances. 
2008 The tasting repport of this wine is being translated. Meanwhile, you can check the Spanish version.
2007 Very tasty, fresh and very nice red wine with a silky, light and smooth mid palate. It is full-bodied and shows notes of fruit, with a touch of liquor, slightly more noticeable than on the nose. Good acidity and integrated tannins. Good finish.

Bright cherry red colour with subtle orange edges. A wine with a medium-high robe and thin tears.

Very expressive wine. On its intense and fleshy notes of red fruit, some toasted and spicy aromas are noticed which gain in intensity and takes over the fruit aromas. When it opens up, the wine becomes more spicy and balsamic and a milky touch is noticed along with a subtle minerality and hints of scrubland.
2006 Tasty and very friendly wine. Embracing attack with a silky texture. Its notes of ripe red fruit and licorice dominate slightly over the toasted and roasted aromas. Several notes of complex spicies (vanilla, cloves, cocoa) are also noticed. Sweety and ripe tannins. Good lingering finish.

Light ruby â??â??red with orange reflections. Medium intensity. Clean and bright. Good tears.

Intense aromas. The notes of fruit and wood are very balanced and they complement each other. The aromas or red fruit are noticed along with milky, spicy (black chocolate, vanilla and a subtle touch of pepper) and good toasted notes.
2004 Tasty, with notes of cherry liqueur, touches of marmalade, very good balance fruit-wood.
