Yllera 'Nuevemeses' - Red Blend

This 2020 red wine blend hails from Castilla y Leon, Spain. It consists of 91% Tempranillo and a 9% blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Merlot. Bodegas Yllera, founded in the early 1970s by brothers Jesus and Pepe Yllera, is now run by the sixth - generation of their family. Committed to eco - friendly practices, they harvest grapes at night to reduce oxidation and keep the aroma intact. The wine is made from 20 - 30 year - old vines, aged in oak barrels before bottling. With around 90% Tempranillo, it offers lively flavors of dark berries, raspberries, pepper, along with gentle vanilla and toast notes from the oak. It pairs perfectly with a hearty vegetable stew or a succulent sirloin steak.

To enjoy this Yllera red blend, first, let it breathe for about 30 minutes after opening to enhance its flavors. Pour it into a wide - rimmed wine glass to fully experience the aroma. When pairing, go for rich dishes like a vegetable stew or a juicy sirloin as mentioned. Store the unopened bottle in a cool, dark place. Once opened, keep the bottle in the fridge and consume within 2 - 3 days to maintain its taste.
