Martín Berdugo Joven is a wine from the D.O. Ribera del Duero region produced by the Martín Berdugo winery. This wine is made using only Tempranillo grapes.
The grapes used for Martín Berdugo Joven come from an estate owned by the winery, which spans 104 hectares and lies at 800 metres above sea level. The local climate is characterised by extreme conditions, which is typical of the Ribera del Duero region.
The vines are grown with the objective of a low yield, thereby causing each fruit to have a higher concentration and quality. The harvest is carried out manually and is done after a careful selection of the vines. There is a small distance between the vineyard and the winery, which means once pick there is only a short journey before the vinification process can be carried out.
At the winery, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Upon reaching the site, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature using yeasts which occur naturally in the grapes. These yeasts ensure that each wine has its own character and individuality. The vinification process and various phases of production of Martin Berdugo Joven are perfomed in using traditional methods.
