ABOUT THE WINE

Crafted primarily from Tempranillo grown in Rioja Alavesa, this Crianza reflects the region’s limestone-rich soils and continental climate. The 2019 vintage offered excellent ripening conditions, producing wines with concentration, balance, and aromatic depth.

After fermentation in stainless steel, the wine is aged for at least 12 months in American and French oak barrels, followed by additional bottle aging before release. The oak influence brings notes of vanilla, cedar, and sweet spice, while maintaining the core of vibrant red fruit and subtle earthy undertones.
