Lantero Crianza DOP Condado de Huelva 75 CL

Lantero Crianza DOP Condado de Huelva 75 CL.

A red wine from the Condado de Huelva Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) in Andalusia, Spain. Produced by Bodegas Privilegio del Condado (part of the Vinícola del Condado cooperative, founded in 1955) in Bollullos Par del Condado, Huelva. The Condado de Huelva PDO, established in 1932 and one of the oldest in Spain, protects wines from this coastal region near the Doñana National Park, known for its sandy soils, mild climate and a shift from traditional white wines (such as those from Zalema) towards innovative reds following the 2016 regulations, which expanded the permitted grape varieties to include Syrah.

Details:

• Type: Red wine, aged (Crianza category according to DOP regulations: minimum 2 total years of aging, with at least 6 months in oak). Specifically, this wine is aged for 4 months in American and French oak barrels.
• Variety of Grape:
• Alcohol content: 13% vol.
• Format: 75 cl bottle.
• Production: Made through pre-fermentation cryomaceration with hand-selected Syrah grapes from the winery’s own vineyards. The process enhances structure, body, and defined aromas, reflecting the region’s evolution toward modern red wines. Annual production is part of the cooperative’s capacity of 40+ million liters.
• Tasting Notes: Expect a well-structured red wine with intense aromas of fruit (blackberry, plum), spicy notes from oak, and a balanced palate, elegant with soft tannins. Versatile for pairing with grilled meats, stews, or aged cheeses.
• Awards/Recognition: Although current sources do not list any specific awards for this vintage, the PDO highlights the Syrah Crianza wines for their quality, and the wines from Vinícola del Condado frequently receive regional awards for innovation.
