Tasting notes Francisco Barona 2023

Red wine Aged in wood. 18 months in French oak barrels.

Francisco Barona 2023 is a red wine that merges elegance and approachability with an irresistible poise. Its bouquet reveals raspberries, wild blackberries, and sour cherries, wrapped in delicate hints of mocha, coffee, and subtle spices such as cinnamon and pepper, with a mineral undertone that adds depth. On the palate, it is fresh, silky, with luscious tannins that caress the taste buds, leaving a prolonged and enveloping sensation. This is a wine that invites you to pause for a few moments, to savour the intensity of each layer, and to relish a moment of complete harmony and sophistication.

About Francisco Barona

Francisco Barona is a red wine produced by the winery Francisco Barona Viñedos in Pedrosa de Duero, D.O. Ribera del Duero.

 

In 2009, after studying oenology in Bordeaux and working in wineries all around the world, Francisco Barona returned to his homeland, Ribera del Duero, and started his personal project. By recovering century-old vineyards, he made authentic, singular and different wines.

In 2011, Francisco Barona managed to buy 5 "majuelos" or vineyards planted with old vines. Up until then, the grapes from these vines were sold to Vega Sicilia. Currently, the wine has 26 hectares of vineyard, 28 "grand crus" planted between 1908 and 1948. These vineyards are cultivated organically and following the cosmic cycles, without herbicides nor pesticides. At the winery, the processes are carried out manually and with very little intervention.

 

Francisco Barona is a wine made from Tinto Fino, Grenache, Albillo, Bobal, Monastrel and Jaén, from old vineyards located in the neighbouring municipalities.

The harvest is carried out by hand and the grapes are placed in boxes. At the winery, they fermented with native yeasts, with a malolactic fermentation in new French oak barrels, where they will remain for 18 months. This wine is bottled without clarifying or filtering.

2022

Francisco Barona 2022 is a red wine with a brilliant, deep purple hue. On the nose, it is notable for its intensity, offering aromas of fruits such as currants, cherries, and blackberries, accompanied by subtle spicy notes of fennel and vanilla, along with mineral and balsamic nuances. On the palate, it is balanced and fresh, with pleasant tannins that impart a touch of sweetness. Its finish is long and persistent, with a concentrated profile that invites enjoyment.

2021

Francisco Barona 2021 is a mature, ample and complex wine. On the nose, the aromas of red fruit stand out on a spicy and mineral background. In the mouth, it is easy silky and quite long lasting. A Ribera del Duero that will have people talking.
