About Finca Villacreces Specimen nº3

In a world where everything seems to have already been invented, there remains room for surprise. For the extraordinary. For that which resembles nothing else. Such is Specimen Nº3, the latest brilliance born at Finca Villacreces, nestled in the heart of the Ribera del Duero.

This estate, concealed among pine forests in the renowned “Golden Mile” of the D.O., harbours a silent viticultural heritage: old vines of exceptional quality. Here, where the land speaks through the grape, emerges a wine that defies conventions and eschews easy labels.

Created from a blend of three different vintages and employing three distinct vinification methods, Finca Villacreces Specimen Nº3 is the result of a true quest for perfection. Its varieties—tempranillo and cabernet sauvignon—have been treated with meticulous attention to detail. Depending on the plot and the characteristics of each grape, they are fermented in wooden vats or stainless steel tanks. The malolactic fermentation occurs in barrels and French oak vats, and the wine rests for 48 months in Bordeaux barrels and 1,200-litre foudres.

Supported by the prestigious Grupo Artevino—also responsible for other gems such as Izadi (D.O.Ca. Rioja) and Vetus (D.O. Toro)—Finca Villacreces Specimen Nº3 embodies the boldest spirit of a house that carries consistency and quality as its banner.

With a very limited production, we are faced with a collector's wine, crafted for those who relish exploring new oenological territories and discovering treasures not easily found. Finca Villacreces Specimen Nº3 is, quite literally, unique in its kind.
