WINE DESCRIPTION
Bodegas Gormaz, a historic winery in the Ribera del Duero region, crafts its 12 Linajes Roble from high-altitude, pre-phylloxera vineyards with calcareous soils. As a Roble, this wine is aged in oak barrels for a shorter time, resulting in a youthful and vibrant character. The winemaking process focuses on selecting top-quality grapes and careful oak aging, which enhances the wine's balance and elegance. The result is a wine with intense aromas of ripe berries and vanilla, and a velvety palate with a well-rounded finish and fresh, lively notes.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Bodegas Gormaz 12 Linajes Roble is garnet with a violet rim.On the nose, it offers intense aromas of ripe red and black fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, along with subtle hints of vanilla and spice from oak aging. The palate is well-structured and balanced, with a medium body and smooth, soft tannins. Ripe red fruit flavors persist, complemented by notes of toasted oak and a touch of earthiness. The wine’s refreshing acidity adds vibrancy, while the finish is balanced and round with a spicy aftertaste of fresh red fruits.
