Origin
Rioja DOCa, Lapuebla de Labarca & Laguardia, Rioja Alavesa, Spain

The grapes come from vines around 50 to 80 years old in Lapuebla de Labarca and Laguardia, on stony soils marked by gravel and limestone. The harvest is carried out by hand. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts takes place in a 6,500-litre wooden vat, with whole bunches and destemmed berries, over approximately two to three weeks; this is followed by around eight months of ageing in used 500-litre wooden barrels. The wine shows red fruit and floral notes, lively acidity, fine tannins, a silky texture and a long, fresh finish.
