Good To Know: Bodegas Perez Pascuas is well known for their focus on sustainability and respect for biodiversity. They implement several sustainable practices such as the use of natural/organic pesticides (animals and plants), preservation and maintenance of centuries-old almond and walnut trees, white hawthorns and plants such as thyme, rosemary, English lavender, mastic thyme, and spike lavender. These practices help secure both the health of their vineyards and quality of their grapes.
Hermanos Perez Pascuas' Gran Seleccion 2011 harmonizes gorgeous fruit forward ripeness, the rustic character of earth and brilliant minerality in one age-defying bottle. The aroma opens with notes of macerated blackberries, black pepper spice and tobacco. The palate is opulently laden with further notes of ripe berries, cedarwood and dark chocolate nuances. The finish is generously long and superbly structured with afternotes of figs and toasted vanilla. Despite its age, the wine remains vibrantly young with powerful, robust tannins. Slightly further cellaring will definitely allow the wine to continue developing further complexity and smoothen out its tannic structure.
Mauro Perez is credited as the ancestor of Bodegas Perez Pascuas. Prior to the establishment of the winery in Pedrosa de Duero, a site located in the Spanish province of Burgos, he tended the land where the vineyards are located today. Mauro passed down his passion and respect for nature as well as his pride in his agricultural profession down to the succeeding generations. In 1980, the winery was officially founded by the Perez Pascuas siblings, carrying with them Mauro's winemaking legacy, producing some of the best and purest Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo) wines in the Spain.
