Don Jacobo Crianza 2023 is a blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha aged for 12 months in oak barrels, produced in Rioja Alta by a century-old winery: Bodegas Corral.
Don Jacobo Crianza 2023 has the classic character of Rioja Alta. It is a friendly and well-structured red wine, made with 90% Tempranillo and 10% Garnacha, and aged for 12 months in oak barrels.
It comes from vineyards located on the slope of Moncalvillo, with vines aged between 20 and 60 years, cultivated in bush vines and hand-harvested. This combination of altitude, tradition, and careful field management helps shape a wine with a strong identity, faithful to the Rioja landscape and its serene approach to viticulture.
Bodegas Corral, established in 1898 and with deep roots in Navarrete, maintains a clear philosophy: to express the essence of Rioja without losing focus on the fruit. Today, it works with its own controlled vineyard and benefits from the expertise of enologists like Daniel Hernando Gómez-Cadiñanos.
