Rento

Overview

Only the finest vintages from Zurita’s vineyards are chosen for Rento, guaranteeing the complexity of its acidic black and ripe red fruit aromas, with a concentrated note of India ink, accompanied by the freshness of its soil.

To highlight the complexity of the wine, it is aged in mostly French and American oak barrels from 7 different cooperages, with lightly toasted wood so as not to obscure the characteristics of its terroir whilst adding touches of cocoa, cedar, toffee, and fine spices. It has an excellent mouthfeel, elegant and intense, with a sweet and persistent finish.
