About Piérola Crianza

Piérola Crianza is a red wine from the Rioja produced by Fernández de Piérola. It is a varietal Tempranillo.

The grapes come from vines that are over 30 years old and whose production is less than 5,500 kg / hectare. The harvest is done manually.

Subsequently, the grapes are de-stemmed in stainless steel at a temperature of below 28º. After this process, Piérola Crianza is macerated with its skins for 30 days with two daily pumpings.

Finally, after malolactic fermentation, Piérola Crianza is aged for 18 months, with six-rackings in American oak barrels (70%) and French oak barrels (30%) whose age ranges between one and three years.

The Piérola Fernández winery was established in 1996 as a small family winery whose objective is to obtain complex, intense and elegant wines.

Its deep cherry red hue captivates the eye, while on the nose, a parade of aromas evokes memories of luscious red fruits, such as cherries and strawberries, intertwined with a hint of exotic spices and a subtle balsamic layer. The delicate roasted scent adds depth and sophistication. On the palate, the wine surprises with a prolonged finish where enchanting black pepper aromas stand out, alongside delicate notes of coconut and vanilla. The 2020 vintage was particularly favourable, yielding wines of remarkable balance.
