Uva de Vida 'Biográfico' Vino Tinto, 2022

Uva de Vida 'Biográfico' Vino Tinto, 2022

Regular price $24.00

An expressive biodynamic blend of Graciano and Tempranillo that balances depth with freshness. Deep garnet in the glass, it opens with aromas of black cherry, wild blackberry, plum, cracked black pepper, clove, and subtle violet, layered with hints of earth, toast, and savory umami. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with vibrant acidity, silky yet structured tannins, and a long, spicy finish that combines dark fruit, mineral nuance, and gentle oak. Decanting for an hour allows the wine's complexity to fully emerge. Pair with grilled lamb, wild mushroom risotto, slow-braised beef, roasted eggplant, or aged Manchego, where its lively acidity and savory character beautifully complement rich, earthy flavors.

Details

From our Distributor:
Uva de Vida is a small, biodynamic farm in the Santa Olalla area of Toledo. Maria Carmen López Delgado started her project in 2005 after she found herself beating a serious illness through realizing that intimate work with the earth and all of its energy, could rejuvenate her own ailments. "If we take care of the earth, we take care of ourselves. Life has given me a new opportunity."

Together, with her husband Luis Ruiz, they work in the dry and extreme continental climate of Castilla with 9.5 hectares of Graciano (a fairly rare red grape in Spain, let alone Castilla), and 3 hectares of Tempranillo. Without even the use of copper or sulfur in the vineyard, they have a sincere passion and dedication to keeping their land perfect, in order to produce incredible grapes, situated between cereal fields and Cornicabra Olive groves.

Uva de Vida Biográfico Tinto is made with biodynamically farmed grapes from the estate’s northeast and southeast-facing slopes. In 2022, the wine was made from 80% Graciano, and 20% Tempranillo, was hand harvested, and fermented naturally in stainless steel tanks for 7 days with skins before pressing, and then a rest for about six months in the same vessels. The wine naturally clarifies and is not filtered nor sees any additions of sulfur before bottling, and is then released as a fresh expression of this blend.
