Trus Albillo Mayor Reserva 2020

DENOMINATION OF ORIGIN
Ribera del Duero.

VINEYARD AREA
Goblet-trained vineyards in Peñaranda de Duero. Dry-farmed, without irrigation.
Different orientations and altitudes.

VINE AGE
Over 50 years-old vineyards, located at 900 to 940 meters over the sea level.

SOILS
Great variability. Predominantly very poor soils of gravel and sand with limestone at depth.

VARIETIES
100% Albillo Mayor.

VINTAGE CHARACTERISTICS
A long-cycle vintage, with a higher-than-average rainfall. This made it vitally important to manage vine vigour accordingly. The berries were larger than those of 2019 but reached a magnificent ripeness during the month of September, owing to the work carried out in the field to control the load on each vine in order to achieve ideal ripeness at each of the vineyards.

AGEING
Six months in used 225-litre barrels and from selected cooperages which, due to their low toast content, will give us a minimum contribution to the wine and, consequently, a greater prominence to the variety and its evolution over the long period of bottle ageing.

ALCOHOL
ALCOHOL: 13% VOL.
TOTAL ACIDITY: 6 g/l in tartaric acidity.
VOLATILE ACIDITY: 0,4g/l. pH 3,3.

A château in the heart of the Ribera del Duero The winery is surrounded by more than 60 hectares of vineyards integrated into the landscape for the creation of great wines. The harvest is done manually in boxes that are immediately transferred to the winery, the grapes go through a selection table to produce only the highest quality fruit. Inside the winery are the tanks where the grapes are placed with the greatest care so that they do not suffer during the process. There is also the bottling hall, the dormitory where the wine rests once bottled and, of course, the extraordinary barrel hall. Concrete breeding At Bodegas Trus we have incorporated for years the ageing process in ovoid concrete tanks that allows microoxygenation through the pores. The wine ferments Inside, the wine ferments with its own yeast and undergoes a subtle internal movement (battonage) due to temperature differences. This ageing on concrete cancels out the inevitable contribution of the barrel to the tannins and aromas of the toast. The result is always a purer wine (greater varietal character) and a more glyceric mouth. Oak ageing In the barrel room the oak is the best ally of our wine. We have 1000 French and American oak barrels in different capacities 225,400 and 500 liters to give each wine a tailored aging, capturing the polyphenols in the wood with the careful contribution of oxygen and enriched in flavors and aromas. This method allows the wines to be produced per estate or plot, so that all the wines from the Trus winery have the personality of the land where the vineyards are planted.
