Loma del Bosque 2024
A fresh and versatile Ribera del Duero
Loma del Bosque 2024, is a Ribera del Duero powerful, fresh and very expressive wine produced under the well-known Marco Real brand, originating from Navarre.
Loma del Bosque 2024 is a D.O. Ribera del Duero made from Tinta del país (Tempranillo) grapes, direct, intense and powerful. The ageing of 3 months in barrel, half French oak and half American oak, provides a well-measured wood background, not smothering its fruit character.
It originates in the region's coolest vineyards, near the Duero river, where the grape finds a very favourable environment to ripen with balance. The calcareous-sandy soils, with a light content of gravels, help to give tension and personality to a wine that moves between black fruit and a supple structure, with ripe tannins and good volume.
Marco Real signs a wine designed to be enjoyed naturally, one that easily fits at table and also into a quiet conversation. Loma del Bosque 2024 reflects very well the brand's style in Ribera del Duero: direct, expressive and with a clear identity, without artifices.
