About Viña Salceda Pico Palomares

At 1,446 metres, Pico Palomares towers over the Sonsierra from the heights of the Sierra Cantabria. At its feet, the vineyards encounter a landscape defined by altitude, limestone and stony soils, and a climate that helps preserve freshness even when the grapes reach full ripeness. From this setting emerges Viña Salceda Pico Palomares, which aims to convey all this character into the glass.
 
Viña Salceda Pico Palomares brings together Tempranillo and Graciano from old bush vines. The altitude and calcareous nature of the terrain provide a particularly precise and mineral expression, while the two grape varieties complement each other: the Tempranillo contributes intensity and depth, while the Graciano introduces freshness, tension, and a more aromatic profile.
 
The winemaking of Viña Salceda Pico Palomares follows a philosophy of utmost precision. The grapes are destemmed but not crushed before undergoing a cold pre-fermentation maceration for five days. They then ferment for ten days at controlled temperatures, aiming for a precise extraction that preserves the freshness and fruit expression.
 
The ageing of Viña Salceda Pico Palomares extends over 12 months, divided between 225-litre barrels and a 2,500-litre French oak foudre. The combination of these vessels imparts depth and complexity, yet allows the vineyard to remain at the forefront.
 
Viña Salceda Pico Palomares is the expression of a Sonsierra viewed from above: altitude, limestone, old vines, and two grape varieties that find their best expression in balance to understand the terroir.
