    A young Rioja crianza offering great character 

    An intensely layered centre with mauve tones near the edge. Lively, clean and layered. Clean aromas characteristic of young tempranillo; aromas of wild fruits, blackberries, raspberries and sloes. Floral notes and a slight nuttiness on the finish. Shows a certain amount of character on the attack, although its acidity is offset by the warm, liqueur-like feel. On the finish, it is pleasant and a little treacly, and at the very end slightly satiny.

    • 100% Tempranillo
    • Aged 12 months in French and American oak 
    Cellaring:  Drink now to 2029
    Food Pairing: Roast lamb chops with rosemary and garlic, grilled ribeye steak, jamón Ibérico, slow-cooked pork tenderloin, roasted duck breast, medium-hard cheeses (Manchego, Comté, Roncal, Idiazábal) & cured meats. | 🌡️ The wine should be served at around 16°C–18°C

     

    STORY BEHIND THE LABEL 

    Established in 1964 by a group of local growers, this 160 hectare estate is named after the best plots in the Rioja Alavesa. Its unique position, where the River Ebro is closest to the Sierra Cantabria mountains, provides a blend of continental and Mediterranean climates, preventing an excess of extreme cold and rain.
