Coto Real 2005

2005 was rated as excellent and considered by many as a perfect crop. La Rioja has not suffered a drought as severe as in the rest of the Iberian Peninsula, and two indicators of quality of the harvest were the highest of the decade (the intensity of color and total polyphenol index). Rain was minimal and well laid out allowing the needs of the vines during flowering and ripening. The weather was fantastic in terms of hours of sun exposure throughout the growing season and especially during the harvest (moderate temperatures during the day and cool nights). Breeding was performed in the same barrels where malolactic fermentation was carried out for give the wine more complexity. The barrel aging was 22 months, no filtration and was subsequently refined in bottle for 25 months prior to marketing.
