Description
Bodegas La Horra Corimbo is a very intense picota cherry colour, with a dark red rim. The nose is expressive, full of red and black fruits, notably cherry and blackberry. It’s rich in mineral nuances, aromatic herbs and fine spices. The sensation of wet earth and pine forests after the rain stand out, accompanied by a subtle note of fresh pistachio. The palate is voluminous, wide, with present tannin, which is fine-grained and pleasant. Red fruits fill the mouth, leaving a pleasant sensation of freshness. Some delicate and subtle oak notes appear, and a delicious sensation of fresh sweetness lingers on the palette.
Bodegas La Horra was established in 2008 by Bodegas Roda, in search of the best location to grow Tempranillo outside of La Rioja. The eventual site that was chosen is set in the heart of Ribera del Duero’s most traditional neighbourhood: La Horra. The Bodegas Roda team first commenced a project in Ribera del Duero in 1999, and in 2008, Bodegas La Horra was founded. The Bodega shares the same technical team as Bodegas Roda, working alongside experienced viticulturists, the Balbás brothers. The wines of Bodegas La Horra have a focus on purity and freshness.
