Vara Y Pulgar Tintilla is a premium red wine produced by Bodegas Luis Pérez in the Jerez appellation of Spain. The wine is made from the Tintilla de Rota grape variety, which is grown in the vineyards located on the hillsides of the Sierra de Cádiz. The vineyards are characterized by their unique soil composition, which is rich in limestone and clay. The winemaking process involves a careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in French oak barrels for 12 months. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the Tintilla grape, with notes of black fruit, spices, and a hint of minerality. It is a perfect match for grilled meats and hearty stews.
