The Finca El Carril Tinto is a beautiful, accessible red wine with good value for money from Bodega Iniesta , the family business of Barcelona's star soccer player Andrés Iniesta. This wine is a blend of Petit Verdot , Syrah & Tempranillo grapes from their own vineyards in the municipality of Fuentealbilla in the la Manchuela region. The vineyards have a clay-like texture and are located on rolling slopes and terraces at a height of about 770 m. The climate in the area has a Mediterranean character with much difference in temperature between the day and the night due to the altitude. The vines vary in age between 5 and 30 years. The harvest takes place in the 1st half of October, after which the wine is fermented under 25 degrees Celsius in stainless steel tanks. This is followed by a wood education for 6 months in American oak barrels.

Once in the glass you can see the beautiful dark, vibrant cherry color and there is a high aromatic intensity on the nose (ripe fruit, spices, vanilla and coconut as a result of American oak). The taste is fresh and ointment, with soft and polished tannins, with delicious fruit tones. Complex and elegant with a long and balanced finish.

Fits very well with beef, lamb, stews, game, tenderloin, roasted / grilled meat and various hard cheeses.
