WINE DESCRIPTION
Gómez Cruzado Crianza is a red wine produced by the renowned winery Gómez Cruzado in the Rioja appellation of Spain. The wine is made from a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Graciano grapes sourced from the winery's own vineyards and selected growers in the region. The vineyards are located in the foothills of the Sierra de Cantabria, where the vines benefit from the unique microclimate and soil composition. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in French and American oak barrels. The resulting wine is a classic Rioja Crianza, with a medium body, balanced acidity, and flavors of red fruit, vanilla, and spice.
