Der Name \u201eLos Tres Dones\u201d \u2013 die drei Gaben \u2013 verweist auf jene Qualit\u00e4ten, die einen gro\u00dfen Ribera del Duero ausmachen: das Terroir der Hochebene, die Tempranillo-Traube in ihrer reinsten Form und die Hand des Winzers. Valdemonjas interpretiert die klassische Rebsorte der Region mit Respekt vor der Herkunft, ohne in die Falle \u00fcberextraierter Moderne zu tappen.<\/p>\n
The 2019 vintage in the Ribera del Duero benefited from a balanced vegetation cycle with cool nights and warm days - ideal conditions for physiological ripeness while maintaining freshness. At 14.5% alcohol, this wine is within the typical range for the region without tipping over into overload.<\/p>\n
The Ribera del Duero, situated at an altitude of around 800 metres, is Tempranillo country par excellence. Here, between Valladolid and Aranda de Duero, a continental climate with extreme temperature fluctuations and barren limestone soils characterise the wines. Valdemonjas<\/strong> works in this demanding landscape with old vines that grow deep roots and produce concentrated, mineral-rich grapes.<\/p>\n Tempranillo - often called Tinto Fino or Tinta del Pa\u00eds in the region - finds perhaps its most expressive home here. The variety combines dark fruit with earthy notes, a firm tannin structure and the tension that promises great ageing potential.<\/p>\n A wine of this character calls for savoury cuisine: Shoulder of lamb from the oven<\/strong>, Castilian black pudding, mature Manchego or a hearty beef steak. The structure of the Tempranillo harmonises with roasted aromas and the umami of grilled meat. This Ribera also shows its best side with braised game rag\u00fa or mushroom dishes with piment\u00f3n - down-to-earth, honest and substantial.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Food pairing suggestions<\/h3>\n
