He worked there as a winemaker for four years, until 1988, when he launched the Pago de Carraovejas winery together with other partners. Tomás was the driving force behind the project, since he was not only a shareholder like the other partners, but also the winery’s technical director and winemaker, responsible for both the wines and the winery itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe remained at Pago de Carraovejas for 20 years, until in 2008 he decided to leave the winery and start a new one that would bear his own name: Tomás Postigo. Since then, it has grown little by little to become one of the benchmark wineries in Ribera del Duero. Tomás has nearly 40 years of experience as a winemaker and is currently one of the most experienced in the region, as well as one of those who knows Ribera del Duero best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Postigo family is made up of Tomás and his four children Gabriel, Alberto, Juan and Nicolás. Their passion for wine was passed on by their father and that means that all of them are already involved in the running of the winery, from the oldest to the youngest, thus bringing together tradition and continuing down the generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIt’s been many years since Tomás, one of the most venerable winemakers in Ribera del Duero with more than thirty-five vintages to his name, began to instill in his children all of his knowledge and love for wine. The four have grown up in the winery, in a special environment learning the importance of a job well done, prioritizing quality and attention to detail, all paramount in Ribera del Duero.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEverything is harvested into 10 kilo boxes, reducing the bruising of the fruit. After staying in a cold chamber, the clusters go through a selection process where several people hand separate anything that’s not a grape (leaves, stems …) or take out the clusters that do not meet the strict quality standards of the winery. Then, once the cluster has been de-stemmed, the grapes will go through automatic selection machine that will remove the unripe berries, the de-stemming remains or overripe grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eTinto Fino, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Malbec. Selected from vineyards located between 750 and 1,010 meters above sea level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIn the winery, the grapes are moved by gravity, without pumps, gently. The grapes arrive destemmed and whole at the tank.  Aged for \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e12 months in 225L Pyrenean Quercus barrels from different forests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpicy nose at first, marked by notes of dry autumn forest, fine woodwork, and very balsamic notes. The fruit is also present, ripe and reminiscent of black berries, accompanied by milky notes. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eVery silky and fleshy, infusing the palate with pleasant, juicy sensations. A harmonious wine. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBottled in April 2021.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis producer is a must try for any Ribera del Duero fan. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRebollo Quercus Pyrenaica is only produced in Magnum (1.5L) format.
