Tinta de Toro

A complex and elegant red wine, an expression of the terroir, with great aging potential.

The grape: 100% of the native Tinta de Toro variety, grown as bush vines, unirrigated and organically farmed, from vineyards between 30 and 60 years old.

Winemaking: vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, with a 2-day cold pre-fermentation maceration and spontaneous alcoholic fermentation. Fermentation and maceration last between 15 and 18 days.

Aging: 30 months in French oak barrels, with a maximum of 30% new barrels.

The wine: very deep cherry color. Powerful and complex aroma, with fine toasted notes from the wood, black fruit preserve, licorice and hints of graphite. Dense and elegant palate with great personality.

Quinta de la Quietud began as a dream shared by a group of friends who, after the estate’s first vintages in 1999, decided to drive the project forward together with the technical team. From the outset the vineyard has been farmed organically, with organic certification since 2000.
