WINE DESCRIPTION
Protos Reserva 5 Año is a premium red wine produced by Bodegas Protos, one of the oldest wineries in Ribera del Duero, Spain. This wine is made from carefully selected Tempranillo grapes grown in the region's high altitude vineyards, which are known for their extreme weather conditions and poor soils, resulting in low yields and concentrated flavors. The winemaking process involves a long maceration period and aging for 24 months in French and American oak barrels, followed by at least 12 months of bottle aging. The result is a complex and elegant wine with aromas of ripe black fruit, vanilla, and spices, a full body, and a long and persistent finish. Protos Reserva 5 Año is a perfect choice for wine enthusiasts looking for a high-quality and authentic expression of Ribera del Duero.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This full-bodied Spanish red wine from the Ribera del Duero region is an intense and complex blend of Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah.On the nose, it displays aromas of ripe black fruit, spice, and dark chocolate. On the palate, well-integrated tannins combine with flavors of blackberry jam, roasted coffee, tobacco, and subtle oak. The finish is long and elegant, with a hint of warm spices. Enjoy this wine with a variety of dishes including grilled steak, lamb, and game.
