Hacienda el Ternero, Torno Crianza, 2018

Hacienda el Ternero dates back to 1077 AD, when it belonged to the Santa Maria de Herrerea Monastery.

And with almost 1,000 years of heritage, it's no wonder that the Hacienda sits on one of Rioja's most desirable plots - their 60 hectares of vineyards are in one of the highest areas at 650m.

The name `Torno` stems from the old Monastery; the monks would place food and clothing onto the base of a rotating door which they would turn `torno` so that the recipients of the gifts would not be able to look inside the monastery.

100% Tempranillo, this fantastic Crianza was aged for 12 months in French oak barrels before resting in bottle.
