Characteristics Pícaro del Águila

Pícaro del Águila is a red wine from Ribera del Duero produced by Dominio del Águila in the town of La Aguilera, Burgos.

Dominio del Águila is a winery founded by Jorge Monzón and Isabel Rodero in 2010. Jorge started his oenology studies in Burdeos and continued his professional career in emblematic wineries like Romanée-Conti and Vega Sicilia before ending up at the Arzuaga wineries.

They cultivate 30 hectares of eco-friendly vineyards and the Tempranillo is the main variety planted with others such as Bobal, Garnacha and Albillo on sandy-clayey-rocky soil depending on the plot.

Pícaro del Águila is made with vines between 35-60 years old, on sandy-clay soil and 900 metres above sea level. The main variety is Tempranillo with some Albillo, Bobal and Garnacha vines.

Fermentation is carried out with all the varieties together in a large maceration, it is pressed by foot and is aged in French oak barrels.

Pícaro del Águila is a red wine like those from the Ribera del Duero in the past, with a good balance between the fruit and wood and a vibrant acidity.
