History
With El Pícaro, our aim was to make a wine that retains the traditional power of the Toro vineyards, but combines it with the freshness and elegance that characterise all our wines.
Regional Information
Toro was one of the great discoveries on our trips in the search for vineyards. In 2005 we found ourselves among the largest number of centenary and pre-phylloxera vineyards we had ever seen, with sandy soils perfect for the vine and an ideal continental climate to prevent the onset of diseases. All these conditions have led to the maintenance of ancestral viticulture, based on respect for natural rhythms.
Vinification Details
Harvest: Manual harvest between September 24 and October 11, using boxes and small trailers.
Winemaking: Fermentation and maceration in small concrete tank (15,000 kg), with natural yeasts, avoiding surpassing 24oC. It is a wine with soft filtering and non-aggressive clarification, to preserve its natural characteristics.
Aging: Two months of aging on its lees in concrete tank.
