About this listing
Verónica Ortega's Kinki 2020 is a red wine from 'Paraje La Llamilla, Villa de Congosto'. This is the third vintage of this cuvée from a single vineyard located in Cobrana, a small town with a deep-rooted wine-growing tradition in Bierzo Alto, bordering the Bierzo Designation of Origin. This vineyard, with an altitude of 750m, has interesting blue slate soil, combined with red clay. The vines are over 90 - 100 years old. This Kinki is aged in an 800-litre amphora for 8 months, to keep a fresh and light profile. The ageing process took place under a thick and thin veil, with the scent of lemon and green apple. This has undoubtedly contributed to a sharpening of the wine's profile, making it much more saline and electric. Here's a taste of what you can expect from this wine:Appearance: Kinki is a wine with a light texture but a precise balance. It has very little colour.Aromas & Palate: It has an intense nose of red fruit, currants, acidic strawberries and raspberries, and a slightly balsamic (even medicinal) background, adding a fresh, elegant and subtle quality to the wine.
