Hacienda Solano Viñas Viejas 2020

The old-vine selection 2020 Viñas Viejas wants to express the soil over the variety, selecting the plots with grapes that have more flavors and acidity and produce wines with more character and length. The wine fermented in concrete and stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and matured in 500-liter barrels for eight months followed by additional time in 2,500- and 5,000-liter concrete vats. It has a restrained 14% alcohol denoting a cooler year with more rain, and there is great harmony and balance on the palate—a wine of purity and finesse within the rustic style of the zone. It has a velvety mouthfeel and very fine tannins. 26,960 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2022.

Toni Sarrión uses 25 parcels over 80 years of age, all of them located in La Aguilera, to make this old-vine cuvée. Partnering Tinto Fino with 2% Albillo Mayor, it's floral, refined and textured, with graceful 500-litre oak, red cherry and raspberry fruit, some chalky minerality and a balanced, refreshing finish. 2023-29.
