The vineyard that names the 2017 Los Rodales was originally planted in 1930—then recovered and partly replanted in 2004—in the village of Miranda del Castañar with an equal-parts mixture of Rufete and the old local strain of Tempranillo known as Aragonés. Both varieties were harvested and vinified together. It matured in a used 500-liter French oak barrel, where it also finished fermentation. 2017 saw an early harvest, as it was a very dry and warm year. This is quite dominated by the Tempranillo, with a slightly reductive profile, so decanting it in advance would be a good idea. None of the wines show any influence from the wood in the élevage, as the wines tend to have a low pH and the oak is better integrated, or the wines extract less from the barrels. It has some grainy tannins and a medium-bodied mouthfeel. This is still marked by the Tempranillo. Only 650 bottles were produced in this first vintage.
