Suckling

Aromatic fineness
This wine unfolds with captivating fragrant complexity, highlighting ripe dark fruits like black cherry and plum. Soothing spicy notes of cinnamon and clove, hints of licorice, and rich balsamic background join these. A broad, refined nose that invites the first sip.
Harmony on the palate
Velvety on the surface, with fine, ripe tannins that provide structure without acrimony. Its lively acidity balances the ensemble and sweetens the fruit expression. The palate is enveloping and graceful, with a long, nuanced finish that leaves a lasting belief.
Extended barrel aging
Aged for 12 months in carefully selected French (55%) and American (45%) oak barrels, 17% of which are new. This aging process contributes notes of vanilla, cocoa, blond tobacco, and a subtle smoky touch that integrate seamlessly with the fruit, elevating the wine's intricacy and character.
High-altitude vineyards
Sourced from Fompedraza Estate, located nearly 900 meters above sea level in the heart of Ribera del Duero, on soils affluent in carbonates and pebbles. This extreme altitude and the continental climate with Atlantic influences impart freshness, chasm, and a vibrant profile that define its originality.
Perfect for special occasions
A perfect match for juicy red meats like entrecôte or roast lamb, as well as game dishes, aged cheeses, and time-honored recipes with a whiff of spice. Its versatility and personality make it a perfect companion for celebrations or intimate dinners.

About the Winery

Pago del Cielo is the Ribera del Duero project of the legendary Torres Family, world-renowned for its century-long history and commitment to quality and sustainability. This winery was founded to produce expressive, high-altitude wines with a specific identity in one of Spain's most prestigious appellations.

The Celeste Reserva vineyard is located in Fompedraza (Valladolid) at an altitude of 895 meters, which lends freshness and character to the wine. The Miocene and Quaternary soils, rich in limestone and clay, and the area's extreme climate profoundly shape the personality of its wines.

Celeste Reserva represents the balance between modernity and tradition, crafted with care and precision, and aged in French and American oak barrels to achieve a refined expression of the Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) grape.

Safe shipping and tracking at all times.
