The wine
Bodegas Vizcarra found themselves a place among top-quality Riberas with their young red wines. Their secret is the excellent ripeness of the grapes and the rigorous care that this family-run winery, with Juan Carlos Vizcarra Ramos in charge, applies to each process throughout manufacture. This wine in particular, the Senda del Oro (Golden Path), gets its name from one of the parcels on the estate, where the vineyards are on average 15 years old.
Aged for 6 months in new American and French oak barrels.
