Bodegas Convento de las Claras

Bodegas Convento de Las Claras Heritage The top cuvée in terms of value is the 2012 Las Claras Heritage. Made from 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) and aged 18 months in a combination of 75% new French and 25% new American oak, this is a big, serious, well-endowed, full-bodied red that includes fruit from vines planted in 1919, 1970 and 1980. Its deep purple color is followed by a beautiful bouquet of camphor, incense, mulberries, blackberries, road tar and graphite. Drink this full-bodied, multidimensional red wine over the next decade.
