The Pinna Fidelis 2007 Vendimia Seleccionada was produced from 30+ year old vines in the legendary wine growing region of Ribera del Duero. Here, the grapevines are situated on high plateaus where the grapes slowly ripen with concentrated aromas, soft tannins, and deep color.
After the grapes were hand harvested and fermented, the wine was aged for 12 months in lightly toasted French oak barrels to preserve the characteristics. The result is a wine with a deep cherry red color and intense aromas of raspberry, vanilla, cinnamon, coconut, cacao, chocolate, freshly roasted coffee, and ripe fruit compote. The flavors mirror the aromas with smooth, soft tannins, great complexity, and an overall finesse.

Chile Rellenos al Horno
Tip: use good quality thick-fleshed canned chiles. Make a slit down the side and spread them flat. Line the baking dish, then spoon the filling over instead of trying to stuff them. Bell peppers should be used only in desperation. The following recipe gives both the customary meat version and an optional cheese version. Pair with the 2012 Kenneth Volk Tempranillo.
