Pérez Pascuas Gran Selección is only vinified in the greatest vintages. In other years, the grapes are used for the Gran Reserva and Reserva, as was the case in the 2017 vintage. In an exceptional year, Pérez Pascuas can be placed on the same level as Vega Sicilia Unico. The Gran Selección is the family wine, created by Mauro, the founder of the bodega.

This wine needs air to open up.
Very fresh, spicy and fruity on the nose (cherry, plum). The impressions are conformed on the palate, deep and complex, fleshy and mineral. The wood is very well integrated.
Good persistence and minerality at the end.
