MIRABRÁS

Mirabrás is a wine supported by the fermentation of 100% palomino grapes in old sherry casks, a form of vinification that has almost disappeared. The result is forceful, unclassifiable, rare…

AN AUSTERE WINE
WITH DEPTH

This wine will seduce the expert palate with its heaps of character and its little-known registers. These evoke biological ageing, the flavour of pure white clay albariza soils and old oak casks.

VINEYARDS AND HARVEST

MIRABRÁS

Equal measures of sunning, good winey oak, patience, control and luck – how could it be otherwise?

A grape that grows on the old vines of Viña Cerro de Leyes and then finishes maturing in the sun of our land for just the right amount of time, before being fermented on fine lees and then stored in tocadero casks, always under the watchful eye and the solid know-how of our cellar masters.

The wine is aged in oak casks and then rests in stainless steel tanks before being bottled and sent to the most exquisite tables.
