O Produtor, tasting note published in March 2nd 2023

With a cherry red color and a crimson edge, clean and bright, Protos Roble has a very expressive, powerful, and complex nose with fresh fruit, sweet spice, and red berry notes. On the palate, it reveals an intense, fruity flavor with toasty nuances, round tannins, and a good finish.

Protos

Never imagined that by fermenting selected 100% Tempranillo grapes and monitoring their temperature, he would conceive a wine of this quality. The grapes come from the cutting of different plots of the vineyards of Burgos and Valladolid, planted 25 years ago.

Vinification: Manual harvest in 20 kg boxes. Once the grapes arrive at the winery, they are manually selected on our sorting tables, with a double selection, first by bunch, then by grape. Maceration with the grape skins and fermentation for 15 days at 24ºC.

Ageing: 6 months in American oak barrels and 6 months in the bottle.

Pairs very well with tomato-based dishes such as pasta pomodoro, puttanesca, stuffed eggplant, among others, and with salami and cheese.

Bodegas Protos

Since 1927, the mission of Bodegas Protos’ founders has been to be faithful to the statement “Being the first,” embodying an attitude of constant improvement with the sole aim of crafting the best wine.

These visionaries understood the importance of listening to the “terroir” and comprehending its needs, envisioning a successful venture that not only has been kept intact but continues to grow, always looking towards the future.

The beginnings are significant because the pillars on which they were built have to lead the way: Quality as the utmost priority and the Brand as a sustainable competitive advantage. Proof of this importance comes from the first vintages (1927 and 1928), which earned Gold Medals at the Universal Exposition of Barcelona in 1929.

Today, Protos is dedicated to maximizing the characteristics of each terroir, respecting its specificities, and utilizing the most natural processes available.

Our rosés and whites originate from different areas and microclimates, where grape selection and variety authenticity guide the expert hands of our viticulturists. Protos reds, crafted by inspired winemakers, embody, on one hand, the purest, freshest character of the famous Tempranillo grape, and, thanks to perfect aging and blending techniques, the highest expression of “Tinto Fino” (Tempranillo) complexity.
