General Information
Created in the style of the châteaux of Bordeaux, Finca Constancia is distinguished by the complete division of its vineyard by varieties, resulting in single-vineyard wines that reflect the full potential of each grape used. This is the case of Altozano Tempranillo 2023, a young red wine, full of red and black fruit and smoothness, a perfect example of the queen grape of the Spanish vineyard.
In order to preserve the tempranillo grapes from the high daytime temperatures and maintain their integrity and freshness, at Finca Constancia the harvest took place at night. Before the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations, the fruits underwent cold maceration in contact with their skins, with the aim of preserving the fruity aromas and obtaining a more intense color. The resulting wine remained for 3 months in French and American oak barrels to enhance all its varietal qualities without masking them. Due to its balance and smoothness, Altozano Tempranillo 2023 is the ideal option to pair with red meats and all kinds of pizzas.
Tasting notes
Intense purple color.
The nose reveals a combination of aromas of well-ripened red and black fruits, notes of licorice, and hints of toffee and vanilla derived from its barrel aging.
On the palate, it is a friendly and smooth wine with perfectly integrated tannins. Sensations of jam and ripe fruit compote.
The winery
The story of Finca Constancia begins in 2000, when González Byass acquired a 230-hectare estate located in the province of Toledo with the aim of establishing a winery in the style of a 'château,' with facilities and vineyards on the same property. Today, Finca Constancia boasts facilities equipped with the most modern technology, inaugurated in 2006 and surrounded by 200 hectares of vineyards planted in different stages, including 3 hectares of 40-year-old Garnacha vines discovered upon acquiring the estate.
An internationally oriented winery, present in more than 30 countries, which has received significant recognitions for its wines (over 90 points in Robert Parker's publication for its Finca Constancia and Altos de la Finca wines, and several Bacchus de Oro awards, as an example).
Finca Constancia dedicates an important chapter to research. Notable initiatives include the planting of an experimental garden to study the behavior of grape varieties in different soils and the experimentation with various cultivation and winemaking techniques. Its vineyards host a wide range of national and international grape varieties, harvested and vinified separately.
