3 Pueblos Tinto Fino
3 Pueblos Tinto Fino is a tribute to Ribera del Duero, one of Spain’s most iconic wine regions. It comes from high-altitude vineyards in Burgos where Tinta Fina, the local name for Tempranillo, thrives between 800 and 1,000 meters above sea level. This elevation creates a unique climate: warm days that promote ripeness and cool nights that preserve acidity, producing wines with balance and longevity.
The vineyards extend across three historic villages: Fuentelcésped, San Juan del Monte and Peñaranda de Duero. Each village brings a distinctive nuance to the final blend. Calcareous soils provide firmness and minerality, while sandy plots contribute finesse and aromatic lift. Vines of 10 to 30 years deliver concentrated grapes that still retain energy, ideal for expressing the essence of Ribera del Duero.
The winemaking process is precise and respectful. Grapes are destemmed and fermented slowly in stainless steel tanks with daily pump-overs for a delicate extraction. Malolactic fermentation takes place on the lees, adding roundness and complexity. The wine then spends six months in French oak barrels, gaining subtle toasted and smoky touches that integrate seamlessly with the fruit. After resting in bottle, it emerges polished and elegant.
3 Pueblos Tinto Fino embodies the character of Ribera del Duero. It is powerful yet refined, fruity yet mineral, traditional yet approachable. The name reflects the spirit of collaboration between three villages united in one philosophy. It pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, pork or a wide selection of tapas, making it a versatile and authentic companion for gastronomy.
