Vera de Estenas - Bobal - Utiel-Requena Spain

Established in 1945, Vera de Estenas stands as a long - standing producer with some of the region's oldest vineyards. Their goal is to produce wines from the local Bobal grape using organic farming and traditional winemaking. Historically, Bobal was used in large - scale, unnamed wine blends. However, recently, a group of quality - focused producers have revived high - quality wine production from this often - misjudged grape. This medium - bodied wine is ripe, with zesty acidity and flavors of damson plums, spice, and earth.

To enjoy this Vera de Estenas Bobal wine, first, let it breathe for about 15 - 30 minutes by uncorking it before serving. It's best served at a cool room temperature, around 60 - 64°F. This wine pairs well with a variety of foods like grilled meats, pasta with rich tomato sauces, and hard cheeses. When storing, keep it in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat. If you don't finish the bottle, re - cork it tightly and store it in the refrigerator. It should stay good for a couple of days, but the flavor might change slightly over time.
