Bodegas Tridente

Location: Castilla e Leon, Spain

Who: Gil Family

Another winery enjoying cult like status in Australia, and also under the guidance of Australian Frank Gonzalez, is Bodegas Tridente. Founded in 2008, Bodegas Tridente is made up of over 40 small parcels mainly of old vine Tempranillo, the oldest planted in 1889. They are located between Villanueva de Campean (Zamora) and El Pego (Toro), which are two separate appellations in the Spanish D.O. system. This is why the wines are bottled under the broader V.T. Castilla y León appellation, allowing them to blend the best quality grapes from both neighboring regions.

The vineyards are upwards of 130 years old and are planted on sandy soils in the traditional vaso system with very low yields. The grapes are hand-picked then fermented in stainless steel tanks. The grapes are then moved to French oak barrels where fermentation is completed.
