Crafted by the Fontana family winery in Spain's Uclés region, Dominio de Fontana Vendimia Selección is a full-bodied red wine boasting a rich heritage. With over three decades of experience, Bodegas Fontana specializes in Tempranillo-based wines aged in oak barrels. Vendimia Selección takes this tradition a step further, incorporating Graciano grapes alongside Tempranillo. These grapes, meticulously hand-harvested from the winery's sprawling 400-hectare estate, are vinified separately in small stainless steel tanks to ensure optimal flavor extraction.
Following fermentation, Vendimia Selección embarks on an 18-month journey of maturation. The wine is aged in a combination of new and used French and American oak barrels. This meticulous aging process imbues the wine with captivating layers of flavor. Hints of vanilla, spice, and smoky notes from the oak marry beautifully with the inherent character of the Tempranillo and Graciano grapes.
The result is a complex and well-structured red wine, perfect for enjoying with a variety of dishes. To fully appreciate the depth and nuance of Dominio de Fontana Vendimia Selección, serve it at a cool room temperature between 17 and 18°C (62-64°F). This allows the wine's aromas and flavors to blossom on the palate, offering a truly rewarding drinking experience.
