Powerful Character, Earthy Complexity, and the Essence of Valle de Guadalupe
Las Nubes Nebbiolo 750 ml Red Wine reflects the oenological mastery and profound identity of Bodega Las Nubes in Ensenada, Baja California. Created under the baton of renowned winemaker Víctor Torres Alegre, this wine celebrates the extraordinary adaptation that the Nebbiolo varietal has found in the hillside soils of Valle de Guadalupe. Subtly blended with a touch of Grenache (85% Nebbiolo and 15% Grenache), it ferments at a controlled temperature and undergoes a careful aging of 12 months in French and American oak barrels to polish its firm tannic structure. Categorically classified as a dry red wine, it stands out for its vibrant deep garnet hue with ruby reflections, its rich nose laden with ripe red fruits, violets, wet earth, soft spices, and tobacco, culminating in a mature, fleshy, full-bodied palate with balanced acidity.
