The bodega's longest time in oak and its highest site: vines over 50 years old at 970 metres near Moradillo. On the nose, dark fruit and red plum, undergrowth, vanilla, liquorice and dark chocolate. The tannins are lively and fine-grained, which the bodega puts down to the gravelly soil.

A red for aged beef, roast suckling pig or Ibérico, served at 16 to 18 °C. We would open it on a winter evening rather than in summer.

Still unsure?

What does Raíz de Guzmán have to do with cheese?

The bodega was founded in 1998 as the continuation of a project that began in 1985 with the Páramo de Guzmán cheeses. It is in Roa de Duero in the province of Burgos, right in the D.O. Ribera del Duero. The owner is Cayetana Santos, and the wines are made by oenologist Mapi Melado. The bodega also has a tunnel almost a kilometre long.
