The grapes come from old mixed plantings near La Aguilera, on gravelly, heavier clay and calcareous sandy soils at around 860 to 900 metres. Whole, undestemmed bunches are crushed by foot and fermented with natural yeasts. The wine matures for 19 months in French oak casks; malolactic fermentation also takes place in wood. It shows dark berries, cherry, herbs and spice, with medium to full body, lively acidity and dry, chalky tannins. The warm 2022 vintage is riper, but remains fresh thanks to the higher proportion of white varieties.
