General information
This wine is made from grapes from our best Rioja Alta vineyards. The harvest date is determined with periodic analysis and tasting of the grapes, indicators of the optimal state of maturation. After a careful selection in the vineyard and in the cellar, the grape goes to French oak vats where the alcoholic fermentation will take place. The uncorking is done in new French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation takes place and its subsequent aging, for 18 months.
Royal Tasting Notes of Asúa
High vividness and color intensity. Cherry color with purple reminiscences in the meniscus. On the nose its aromatic potential stands out, with ripe forest fruits appearing, with blackberries predominating, and also floral notes of violet intermingling with those from fine wood such as coffee, chocolates and balsamics.
In the mouth it has a powerful attack but with a smooth mid palate marked by a silky and pleasant tannin, which gives us a broad aftertaste that allows us to continue enjoying the wine for a long time. In the glass it evolves, expanding its aromatic variety. The pairing is very wide, ranging from mere tasting to any kind of meat, including game.

Bodegas Toro Albalá was born in the heart of the Cordovan countryside in 1922. Our History is the story of a small farmer, José María Toro Albalá, who had the great idea of saving old wines for the creation of oenological jewelry for palates. More demanding. A philosophy that knew how to implant in family values and that are still preserved. Considered a feat considering the situation of the time. But, it has been worth for the Toro Albalá to be at the best tables on the planet. Fine wines were the most consumed in the thirties by an Andalusian population that went to the taverns of the neighborhoods and that was mostly dedicated to the work of the primary sector. The setting of the winery was an old power station in the area, which gave rise to the jokes of the Andalusians who called that the wine had electricity or was electric, hence the famous name of the fine "Eléctrico" that still remains to this day. Convento Selección days, these are old wines of several generations that have been left to age in casks of amontillados so that they have a special and free aging, allowing the wine and the wood to merge to achieve spectacular results.Our bottling system It is called the Convent Selection by the system of Cistercian monks in which they are classified by a system of their own series. All the elaboration is done by hand seeking to follow the Recula Standard of Saint Benedict, "living from the work of hands".Tasting Notes Don Px Convento Selección
