HOYA DE CADENAS RESERVA PRIVADA (Gold Medal) is a wine made with Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon which denomination of origin is Utiel-Requena. It has an intense cherry colour. On the nose it has a rich aroma with complex nuances, with hints of cocoa, roasted and red fruits. On the palate we find a fleshy wine, with excellent assembly between the sweet tannins of the fruit and the dry tannins of the wood.
HOYA DE CADENAS RESERVA TEMPRANILLO (Silver Medal) made 100% with Tempranillo, it also has Utiel-Requena as a appellation of origin. It has a clean appearance and deep intensity with red-vermilion dyes. Complex aromas of ripe fruit and vanilla. The right blend of the Tempranillo variety with the generosity and roundness of Garnacha results in a smooth and velvety wine with an elegant and spicy finish. This wine has twice been the winner of the “Superwine” awarded by the Guide “The Best Super Wines” by the writer Joan C. Martín.
These deserved accolades are added to the list of awards that these wines have been obtaining worldwide, this will open up new opportunities within the national and international market.
