Crianza + Growth
from Sip & Grow The Podcast Hosted by Nicole Di Pasquale
Today I open up a Crianza from Protos (today's producer) located in Valladolid, Spain located about an hour away from Madrid in the wine region of Ribera del Duero. Valladolid is one of the four provinces located in Ribera del Duero and Protos is one of the first wineries in this region. Most of the vineyards at Protos sit on the south facing hills giving them optimal sunlight for maturation. The soil is predominantly limestone, they have a manual harvest and hand sort the grapes on the sorting table. They produce about 3.5 million bottles of wine per year… WILD. Tune in as I open up this bottle of Crianza from one of Spain's largest wineries and get into why growth is important in order for you to be the best version of you.
