Depending on the vintage, the grapes come from high-altitude parcels in Rioja Alavesa or, since 2019, from Cárdenas, with reddish-brown, calcareous clay soils. The grapes are hand-harvested; fermentation takes place with natural yeasts in French foudres, 500- to 600-litre barrels and concrete tanks. The wine is matured for around eight to ten months. In the glass, it displays a dry, fresh and mineral style with white fruit, flowers and a slightly salty, at times finely bitter finish. The earlier origin comprised nine parcels near Labastida.
