{"title":"Berta Valganon","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen we visualize producers breaking free from rigid constraints to recreate a classic wine style, Spain's most famous wood aged region rarely crosses our minds. The established techniques there run deep, which makes us incredibly enthusiastic to show off this particular wine. Say hello to Berta Valgañón, an entrepreneurial grower charting a fresh course at her family's historic estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer vines thrive at high elevations reaching nearly two thousand feet, right where the cold winds of the Obarenes Mountains sweep through the upper valley. While mainstream local styles lean heavily on aggressive toast or sweet wood flavorings, Berta favors a minimalist approach. She cultivates her old parcels entirely without synthetic chemicals, caring for heirloom plantings passed down through four generations of her family. Because these ancient, deep rooted vines are up to a century old, they naturally produce tiny yields of immensely concentrated fruit, providing the built in depth and complexity that drives the incredible quality of her wines.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"berta-valganon-rioja-alta-tinto-seleccion-natural-2021-750ml","title":"Berta Valganon Rioja Alta Tinto Seleccion Natural 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eBerta Valgañón 'Selección Natural' Rioja Alta 2021 is a compelling, cool climate red crafted from certified organic vineyards situated at high altitudes in Cuzcurrita de Río Tirón. Composed of 85% Tempranillo cofermented with 10% Graciano and 5% Garnacha, this wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel and concrete before aging for 18 months in large neutral French oak barrels and concrete tanks. It beautifully bridges traditional and modern Rioja styles, revealing an aromatic profile of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, smoked paprika, sage, and forest floor. The palate is medium to full bodied with a plush, velvety density, presenting refined savory tannins and a juicy, cool toned acidity that leads into a persistent, graphite laced finish. This structured, and truly lovely Rioja is exceptional with roasted lamb, seared duck breast, or aged Manchego cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alluvial [ALL]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43322760069155,"sku":"SF-1-ALL--070626-68","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/1208\/0163\/files\/Bottle-of-Berta-Valganon-Rioja-Alta-Tinto-Seleccion-Natural-2021-Red-Wine-Flatiron-SF.jpg?v=1783560144"}],"url":"https:\/\/sf.flatiron-wines.com\/collections\/berta-valganon.oembed","provider":"Flatiron SF","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
