Great depth on the nose, with pronounced pear and citrus notes with creamy and toast notes. Autolytic notes from lees contact Elegant and fresh on the palate good acidity that allows aging potential. A very versatile wine in terms of food pairing due to its extraordinary complexity. A white wine with character, ideal for pairing with a great range of dishes, from fish and foie gras to meats, mature cheeses and even Iberian charcuterie. It has a very long lifespan, with potential for evolving in the bottle.

Limited production of 30,080 bottles of 750ml. The Viura comes from vines of more than 60 years of age situated at more than 600m altitude in the Rioja Alta. The Tempranillo Blanco is grown on more clay-based soils and the Sauvignon Blanc comes from parcels in the coolest, most easterly area of the D.O. at more than 700 m altitude. Hand harvested at the optimum moment. Each varietal is vinied completely independently. Destemming and subsequent vatting. Long macerations at a low temperature in contact with the skins to extract all the primary aromas. Very gentle pressing and subsequent static settling. Fermentation in egg-shaped FlexTanks at a very low temperature. Racking to new, gently toasted French oak barrels from Nevers and Allier to complete the fermentation process. Due to the characteristics of the vintage, we sought to respect the grape’s natural acidity, only carrying out partial malolactic fermentation in the Viura variety. Battonage every two days in the three varieties over ve months to add volume on the palate.
