About Protos Roble
Protos Roble is a red wine from the Ribera del Duero produced by Bodegas Protos. This wine is a varietal Tinta del País.
The grapes used grows in vineyards where the harvest is done manually and the grapes go through a selection process.
The grapes are destemmed and macerated cold to extract the best flavour from the skins. The subsequent fermentation takes place at controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. Protos Roble is aged for six months in American oak barrels before resting another half year in the bottle.
Protos, which in Greek means "first" is one of the historic cellars on the Spanish landscape. It was established in 1927 and was the first wine produced in Ribera.
The Tinta del País vines of this cellar now cover almost the entire geography of Ribera del Duero.
