Description
PREPARATION
Grapes: 100% Tinta de Toro.
To make Epitafio 2019 the harvest is done manually due to the fragility of the centuries-old vineyards, in small boxes so that the grapes arrive intact at the Winery. Prolonged maceration with its skins, once the clean wine is obtained, it is racked to new French oak barrels to carry out its malolactic fermentation. It is aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels to polish all its tannins. Bottled unfiltered. Legado de Orniz was born in Spain in one of the oldest and most prestigious wine-growing areas of the Toro Designation of Origin, San Roman de Hornija. In 2010, a dream came true, its Epitafio and Triens styles reflect the characteristics of its land, climate and strength of the centenary "Tinta de Toro". Passion, perseverance and commitment are characteristics that define Legado de Orniz, working every day to understand the wisdom and complex art that has dominated these lands for thousands of years, producing wines with great personality.
