If a wine passes 18 months in oak barrels And then they let it rest for a whole year in the bottle before you can touch it; it's not just a Crianza. It's a statement of intent.

In most industrial wineries, Crianza is released as soon as it reaches the minimum legal aging period to generate quick profits. Vitulia Things are taken differently.

The mix that makes the difference:
It has a 95% from Tempranillo, the queen grape of the Ribera, but they've added a 5% of Merlot. That small percentage is not there by chance; the Merlot contributes that finesse and velvety touch that makes Tempranillo not a "brute", but a gentleman with character.

The secret of wood:
They haven't just thrown it into any old barrel. They've used a 70% French oak barrel to give it elegance and spicy notes, and a 30% American Oak to give it that sweet and ripe fruit touch that everyone loves.

What will you notice?
It's a wine with 14.51% alcohol, so prepare for something full-bodied. It has a deep, almost dark color, and as soon as you bring it to your nose, you'll be greeted by aromas of spice and ripe black fruit. It's balanced, serious, and has that long finish that reminds you it's been aged. three years preparing so you can enjoy it in five minutes.

It's the ideal wine for those who know that the best things in life take time. If you're looking for a Ribera del Duero with a structure that can stand up to any hearty meal, this Vitulia is a sure bet.

An honest warning:
Three years of aging means we can't just snap our fingers and have more tomorrow. We have the bottles we have. If you appreciate the craftsmanship and patience of the winemaker, this Crianza will give you much more than you pay for it.
