Dominio Fournier Tinto - Spain
Dominio Fournier is intense and clean in the nose, with aromas of dark fruit, spicy notes and liquorice. On the palate is fresh, elegant, balanced and with a long finish.
In the plots where the grapes grew that produced Dominio Fournier, the vines are planted in the gobelet style and wire-trained and stand on a pretty fluvial terrace right by the river Duero. The river runs alongside the vineyard for more than 2km, tracing out a meandering border to our property. There are 50Ha planted with Tinta del País and the vines are on average more than 40 years old.
In most of the plots the soil is notable for its surface layer of large pebbles, its low concentration of organic matter and its poor water retention, which seriously limits both the vigour of the vines’ growth and their yield, which is only 3,000-5,000 kilos per hectare.
