Suitable for
For the (curious) lovers of classic Riojas, there is wood, in another way
Viticulture and vinification
100% Tempranillo . 13.50% Vol. Alc. . A vineyard mosaic with 60 years old average located between Laguardia and Lapuebla towns . Single vineyards coupage, each parcel is vinified separately to give prominence to the landscape of the Rioja Alavesa with its clay and limestone soils . The 2018 vintage, the first of this project, was longer than usual due to the pre harvest rains; as a result, vines had a longer cycle and grapes were riper, almost on botrytis verge
Tasting notes
Bright and deep ruby color . Cherry, chocolate and toasted wood aromas . Ripe but fresh red fruit flavor, nothing cloying . The wood is present, fermented in oak vats and aged 17 months in French oak and a little American, with hints of cedar, chocolate, and coffee . Already in 2022, it is an elegant Tempranillo with aging capacity where the wood is very well integrated showing the freshness of the fruit
Winery things
