Description: 

A wine that reflects perfectly our philosophy. Origin: The village of Samaniego with its meager and rocky soils. Altitude: One of the coolest sites in Rioja. Origin: Old vines, deeply rooted in tradition and culture.  Gravity wine making without interference and fining. Time: Long and patient aging.

And the result? Hard to put into words ….

Red wine made from the variety Tempranillo, sourced from low-yielding old vines (>60 years), estate-grown in vineyards (Carrasanvicente, Carranavarides, El Caño, Murriarte), located in the village of Samaniego, Rioja Alavesa.

After a manual picking, all the grapes are hand-selected, berry per berry, using vibration and selection tables. Long macerations and intracellular fermentations with indigenous yeasts in oak fermenters. Natural extraction by gravity. Malolactic fermentation and 24 months ageing in new French oak barrels.

Tasting Note : Its hard to describe how good this wine tastes, but I'll try. Intense dark cherry-red colour with aromas of fresh black fruits, cherry and vanilla . Spicy and very fresh. Elegant, complex and vivid on the palate. Fine-grained tannins and nice acidity. Very long finish. Made for long aging.
