Predicador
Información sobre este vino:
Predicador is a red wine from Bodega Contador bearing the unmistakable seal of Benjamín Romeo: an interpretation of Rioja with nerve, precision, and a personality that does not need to raise its voice to make itself noticed. Its style, framed in a Crianza of aging classification medium-aging, combines the depth of ripe fruit with the noble pulse of the wood, in an elegant conversation between power and finesse.
In the glass, this red wine displays an almost architectural aesthetic: first it seduces with its brightness and chromatic density, then with the sensation of a high layer, as if light were trapped in the liquid. It is a Rioja with a modern gesture and a classic soul, with that noble solemnity of wines that know how to dress the table without losing freshness or frankness.
Here, the Bodega Contador winery builds a wine of gastronomic vocation and broad character, where red and black fruit is framed in a precise, unpretentious aging that adds depth without covering the landscape. Predicador is, in essence, a red wine of great presence, enveloping and very measured, with the elegance of what is done well and the confidence of someone who knows his territory perfectly.
It comes from vineyards in Rioja, in plots mainly spread across San Vicente de la Sonsierra and Briones, with calcareous soils and a climate with a clear continental imprint. That combination gives the wine a very attractive tension between ripeness and freshness.The main grape is Tempranillo, accompanied by small proportions of Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo depending on the vintage, a discreet symphony that adds nuance, relief and complexity to the whole.
