Tasting notes
Valdehermoso Joven by Bodegas y Viñedos Valderiz is a gem from the Castilla y León region of Spain, crafted in the 2010 vintage. This isn't your typical Spanish wine; it's more like a hidden treasure from a land known for its robust reds. Valderiz has been making wines that truly embody the rich terroir of the area, and this one is no exception.
It made its mark in the 34th volume of the manga 'Drops of God' as a candidate for a three-bottle home drinking set. The scene describes a heavy door that, once opened, reveals the majestic summer landscape of the Pyrenees. The scent of mountain herbs, baked earth, and ripe black fruits fill the air, creating a sensation akin to reaching the summit of a steep mountain and basking in the view.
Pour it into the glass, and you'll notice its deep garnet hue. The aroma is intense from the first whiff, dominated by ripe blackberries, with earthy undertones and herbal notes adding layers of complexity. On the palate, the sweetness and acidity are in perfect balance, with tannins that are powerful yet silky. The finish is moderately long, leaving you with a lingering sense of the Pyrenees' natural beauty. It's a wine to open when you want to create a memorable occasion.
