2023 La Maldicion Vinos de Madrid Tinto Fino

The rocky Valdilecha vineyard is the on the opposite side of Madrid to Bernabeleva, where winemaker Marc Isart has his day job as head winemaker.

This Tinto is 80% wild Tempranillo and 20% Malvar, a native white grape. Co-fermented, three or so weeks on skins, all cement and tank, no oak - a recipe for bright, energetic Spanish red, a long way removed from traditional Tempranillos from Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
