Tasting Notes Think village Beaujolais produced at high elevation in Spain. That's the ethos of Kiki & Juan tinto - taking the under-served Bobal grape and elevating to a place with high-toned aromatics and a fresh, minerally palate. Strawberry, framboise and Earl Grey pop in the glass, while the palate is crunchy and dry. Kiki & Juan tinto is meant to be a fun, transparent wine from Requena.
Selling Point Cert.organic wine produced by John House of Ovum Wines.
Pairings Delicious with cheese and charcuterie, on its own
Sustainability Certified Organic
The Story
Dry farmed, certified organic. Multiple small lots, scattered across the high elevation calcareous soils of Requena, are what defines the quality of our wines. Warm days give ample ripeness, but are chased away with very cool nights which preserve acidity. The Bobal vine age is 60yrs on average, but some sites are over 100+yrs old.. The most unique quality of Requena is it’s high elevation, where the UV spectrum allows phenolic development to fulfill at low sugar levels. Basically that means great flavor at low alcohol.
