Protos Clarete 2025 es un vino muy fresco y frutal elaborado por Bodegas Protos, que abandonó sus dominios de Ribera del Duero y Rueda en busca del mejor terruño para la elaboración de rosados. El resultado es un goloso clarete de la D.O. Cigales con mucha intensidad y un final dominado por recuerdos de frutas rojas frescas.

Protos Clarete 2025 es un vino elaborado a partir de un coupage de tempranillo (95%) y un pequeño aporte de syrah y merlot. Las uvas proceden de viñedos con edades entre 10 y 40 años. Las uvas se vendimiaron de forma manual y mecánica durante la noche y se trasladaron a bodega rápidamente y en atmósfera inerte para evitar oxidaciones prematuras. Tras su maceración en frío durante cuatro horas y su prensado, que se realiza siempre bajo atmósfera inerte, se procedió al desfangado estático a 8 ºC y se inició la fermentación en acero inoxidable, a unos 14 ºC. El vino obtenido realizó su crianza en esos mismos depósitos (con agitación regular de lías) durante 2 meses.
Bodegas Protos es sinónimo de calidad y una de las bodegas más reconocidas del panorama español. Originaria de Ribera del Duero, Protos ha extendido sus dominios a la cercana D.O. Rueda, y, más recientemente, a la D.O. Cigales, donde elabora este sugerente rosado.
Puedes combinar Protos Clarete 2025 con pescados azules, curris, arroces orientales, carnes blancas y quesos suaves.
Protos Clarete es un vino que presenta una alta intensidad aromática. Fragante, dominado por los aromas de fruta roja fresca (fresas, frambuesas), no exenta de complejidad. En boca es equilibrado, con una entrada muy fresca, un final frutal y persistente marcado por recuerdos de frutos rojos. Es un vino goloso con mucha intensidad de sabor, muy directo y disfrutable.
Protos was (except for Vega Sicilia) the first winery of Ribera del Duero: founded in 1927 as a cooperative after the union of 11 winegrowers from the area, and one of the wineries that promoted the creation of the Denomination of Origin in Ribera del Duero (1982). Today, it is one of the most important wineries in Spain, and its wines are sold in 100 countries across five continents.
Located in Peñafiel, where the old and new wineries are connected by an underground tunnel. The old winery, exclusively dedicated to aging, has 2 kilometers of underground galleries carved into the mountain on which the castle stands, where the wines are aged under optimal natural conditions. The new facilities, with a spectacular design by the prestigious architect Richard Rogers, place Protos at the forefront of the wine and wine tourism scene. In fact, it is the most visited winery in the D.O. Ribera del Duero and was the first nationally to achieve the "mark of excellence" certificate by the prestigious international body Superbrands. Additionally, in 2013, Protos was recognized as "Winery of the Year" by Wine & Spirit magazine, and in 2022, it was named one of the 50 most admired wineries in the world by the prestigious international organization Drinks International.
Bodegas Protos owns 150 hectares of its own vineyards and also sources from its associates to craft its elegant wines. This carefully managed but extensive viticulture potential allows the allocation of each grape bunch to a specific type of wine. Another cornerstone of its philosophy is the constant renewal of its barrel stock (with a maximum of 4 years). Since 2006, Protos has also been present in the D.O. Rueda, where it produces Verdejo whites following the same high-quality standards. More recently, in 2019, it announced its entry into the D.O. Cigales.
