Cincuenta 2011

Cincuenta is a tribute to the fiftieth anniversary of D. Victorino Eguren as head of the winery, continuing the Eguren family's winemaking tradition and love for their land. Ruby-red color with clean bright purple edge. High aromatic intensity of fruit compote assembled with toasted-oak aromas. Shows roundness, harmony, and great structure. Pleasant sense of volume and soft tannins. Long and persistent aftertaste.

100% Tempranillo. Elaborated and estate bottled by Eguren Ugarte. The Eguren family has been directly linked to vine growing since 1870, thanks to their great-great-grandfather, Anastasio Victorino. He was a native of Bergara and chocolate trader by profession who fell in love with Estefana and abandoned the green valleys of Guipuzcoa in the Basque Country to settle in San Vicente de la Sonsierra. By a quirk of fate the healer, Pascasio Pangua, who cured one of the couple's daughters, was cared for by and lived with the Eguren family during his twilight years and, to show his gratitude, left his vineyards to his adopted family in his will.
