Tiempo, Diálogo, Espacio: A Masterpiece of Wine and Art

22 Nov, 2024

Abadía Retuerta, the renowned winery and hotel in the heart of the Duero Valley, has unveiled a remarkable collaboration with the Chillida family to celebrate the centenary of Eduardo Chillida’s birth. The result is ‘Tiempo, Diálogo, Espacio’ (Time, Dialogue, Space) — an exclusive wine project that seamlessly blends the worlds of fine wine and art.

‘Tiempo,

Diálogo,

Espacio’

Time, Dialogue, Space

This project presents a limited-edition collector’s wine from the 2016 vintage of Abadía Retuerta. It comes in a gorgeously crafted box that was inspired by Eduardo Chillida’s artwork, Untitled (1963). The sculpture, which was picked because of its organic shapes that resemble grapevines, represents the expansion of nature and the spirit of winemaking.

A Wine with History

The 2016 vintage, a milestone year marking the 20th anniversary of Abadía Retuerta, serves as the foundation of this creation. With a blend of Syrah, Tempranillo, Merlot, Graciano, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, the wine embodies the rich legacy of the winery. Its oenologist, Ángel Anocíbar, describes it as a snapshot of time, encapsulating the spirit of the vineyard and its journey.

Tasting Notes:

  • Aromas: Red and black fruits, minerality, and subtle spices.
  • Palate: Velvety, balanced, with polished tannins and a long finish.
    This wine is a testament to the grandeur of Abadía Retuerta’s terrain and craftsmanship.

“It encompasses shared values and

contributes to the history of art and wine”

Enrique Valero, CEO
