Production

Hand-harvested fruit undergoes carbonic maceration for 10–12 days to capture brightness and aromatic intensity. Native yeasts drive fermentation, and the wine matures briefly in stainless steel before bottling. Minimal intervention preserves raw character and vineyard identity.

Vineyard

From clay-calcareous soils in Rioja Alavesa, the vines are farmed biodynamically with regenerative techniques to restore soil vitality and biodiversity. The region’s Atlantic influence brings freshness and poise, while the elevated sites lend purity and lift to the fruit.

Pairing

Superb with hearty, rustic fare — think hunter’s stew with olives and tomatoes, slow-braised lamb, or chorizo and white bean casserole.
