El Tractor

A Rioja Wine That Stands the Test of Time

El Tractor Vendimia Seleccionada is a modern, visually captivating, and expressive wine that leaves a lasting impression on the palate. This carefully crafted Rioja red is the result of meticulous vineyard selection, traditional winemaking techniques, and precise oak aging.

 Winemakinng Process & Aging

Sourced from estate-owned vineyards, the grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a strict double selection, both in the field and at the winery. A pre-fermentation maceration at low temperatures (48-72 hours) enhances the extraction of flavors. The fermentation is temperature-controlled (28-30°C) in concrete tanks, with two daily pump-overs for the first eight days, followed by a gentle pump-over every two days. Malolactic fermentation takes place in barrels, refining the wine’s structure and texture. The wine is then aged for 24 months in new French (90%) and American (10%) oak barrels, with racking every six months for optimal evolution.
