It has become a leader in wines as well as wine tourism. In fact, a few years ago, it was highlighted by the New York Times as one of 52 destinations around the world to visit. It is worth a stop if ever in the area, to join a tasting and explore the estate and five-star hotel. As is common here, most of their wines are red, from the excellent Tempranillo grape (90%), with 10% from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Most of the Tempranillo grapes were from La Maquinilla vineyard, the oldest of Arzuaga’s La Planta estate, in the Valladolid part of the Ribera del Duero appellation (this is also where the Arzuaga winery is based). La Maquinilla lies at a very high altitude of 911 metres on chalky clay soils on limestone rock one meter from the surface. The rest were grown on centuries-old vineyards of pebbled and sandy soils, from the province of Burgos (also part of Ribera del Duero). The grapes were harvested in mid October, destemmed and macerated at cool temperatures to extract precious aromas and flavours. After fermentation, the wine was aged for 16 months in barrels (75% French oak and 25% American oak)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection data-liuqs-content=\"verified-context\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"site-brand-context\"\u003eListed by \u003cstrong\u003eFlowers by Richard NYC | Same Day Flower Delivery NYC\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"site-context-note\"\u003eFree Shipping on All Orders · New Store Launch Deals End in 30 Days!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"verified-product-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVendor:\u003c\/strong\u003e My Store\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTags:\u003c\/strong\u003e Skincare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42985915318357,"sku":"cs_1752","price":1.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/9630\/0117\/files\/kgo9aho8szro_d3c4efdd-25c3-4c29-80bf-aebafe4f4565.jpg?v=1789255565","url":"https:\/\/willowcreekspirits.com\/products\/arzuagariberadelduerocrianza-2022halfbottle-37-5cl-t1re4p","provider":"Willow Creekspirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
