About Abeica Carronillo

They have been bottling wine since 1981 and have cultivated the vineyard for over five generations; however, it is only now that the name Bodegas Abeica is gaining significant recognition. This is partly due to some of their wines, such as Abeica Carronillo, through which this winery showcases the most traditional and typical version of the D.O.Ca.Rioja while embracing contemporary relevance. This rendition, where tradition meets future, is crafted by Ricardo Fernández, one of the most promising winemakers on the current scene. 
 
Do not be intimidated by the seriousness of Abeica Carronillo. We assure you that despite this initial impression, Abeica Carronillo is a wine you will find yourself drinking almost effortlessly. For this, Ricardo has drawn from the history of the D.O.Ca. Rioja, reviving family vineyards and techniques employed by his grandparents. Specifically, Abeica Carronillo originates from the plot that lends it its name, an ancient vineyard—planted over 50 years ago—situated at an altitude of 630 metres. In this part of the western region, where fresher wines are achieved, the area is abundant with a blend of shallow clay and limestone soils that become exceedingly fertile under the prevailing Atlantic climate. 
 
As a rule, the wines of Bodegas Abeica are crafted with whole clusters, following carbonic maceration. This is also the case with Abeica Carronillo, where tempranillo, viura, and garnacha tinta ferment within the cluster itself. All are placed in the same tanks for vinification, then transferred to French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation takes place. Here, in close contact with the wood, Abeica Carronillo will rest for approximately a year and will be bottled without filtering or fining. 
 
Make sure to remember the name because Abeica Carronillo is set to make waves!
2021
Abeica Carronillo 2021 boasts a subtle and sophisticated aroma, where intense black fruits such as blackberry and blueberry take centre stage, accompanied by spicy notes of liquorice on a fresh backdrop. On the palate, it reveals itself as expansive and well-balanced, with silky tannins that lend a smoothness. Its freshness is complemented by a long finish and a concentrated profile, making it a most delightful and easily enjoyable wine.
