Duquesa de la Victoria Cosecha

Valdelana · D.O.Ca. Rioja · Rioja Alavesa

Very high color intensity, deep cherry-red (picota) with violet glints; dense, faintly tinted, slow-falling legs. Forest-fruit aromas (wild blackberry, raspberry, redcurrant) with fresh strawberry standing out over a backdrop of red fruit. Powerful and fleshy on the palate, with a lush entry balanced by its acidity; a broad finish leaves a pure, youthful red-fruit impression.

Pairs with: Pairs excellently with assorted tapas, meats, stews, legumes and traditional local dishes.

About Valdelana

The Valdelana family has grown grapes in Elciego (Rioja Alavesa) since the end of the 19th century, farming around 150 hectares of Tempranillo, Mazuelo, Graciano, Viura and Malvasía at fairly low yields. Juan Jesús Valdelana, third generation of the family, is winemaker and manager; the estate produces wines exclusively from its own grapes to control quality from vineyard to bottle.
