Piedra Crianza 2021

Tradition and depth of Tinta de Toro

Vineyard philosophy

Piedra Crianza 2021 is made from organically farmed Tinta de Toro grapes from 40-year-old vines rooted in stony, sandy soils near San Román de Hornija. The vineyard is cultivated sustainably, focusing on biodiversity and low yields to produce fruit with great intensity and balance.

Winemaking approach

Harvested by hand, the grapes undergo spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel, followed by an extended maceration. The wine is aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels, then refined for 6 months in bottle. The result is a bold, structured red with elegance and regional character.

Colour: deep ruby red with garnet highlights.
Nose: complex aromas of ripe black fruits, sweet spices, licorice, and well-integrated oak.
Palate: full-bodied and velvety, with smooth tannins and a long, balsamic finish.

Tradition, authenticity, and sustainability in the heart of DO Toro

Established in 1968 in the Guareña Valley, Bodegas Piedra is a key reference in the Denominación de Origen Toro. The winery focuses on preserving and showcasing the native Tinta de Toro grape, grown in one of the region’s most historic vineyards: Bocarrage, planted in 1967 with ungrafted vines. With its diverse soils and continental climate, the vineyard produces grapes of great character and identity, cultivated under certified organic practices.

In the cellar, Piedra follows a minimal intervention philosophy: spontaneous fermentations, native yeasts, no filtration or fining, and minimal use of sulfur. The result is a range of wines that are genuine, bold yet refined, and true reflections of their terroir.
