Bodegas Protos Joven Roble is an expressive release built around ripe berry concentration, hints of dried herbs and a long, tapering close.

The wine is vinified with a controlled, site-first approach, then matured to integrate texture and savoury nuance without obscuring the fruit's character. A short period in oak adds gentle spice and structure, complementing the fruit without dominating it.

The philosophy behind the wine supports environmentally mindful farming and careful vineyard decisions, aiming for balanced fruit and clear vintage expression.

This winery's approach blends regional tradition with modern precision, aiming to translate vineyard character into wines with clarity and personality.

Deep ruby red with garnet edges. Medium intensity nose of ripe red cherry, strawberry, and blackberry with attractive vanilla, spice, and subtle toast from oak ageing. Medium to full-bodied palate with flavours of dark fruit balanced by cocoa and a touch of warm spice. Smooth, well-integrated tannins contribute to a round, velvety mouthfeel. Well-structured, fruity, and fresh with a long, persistent finish where lingering fruit flavours meld with soft, spicy oak character.
