HARVEST AND VINE SELECTION
Harvest of grapes from 40-year-old vines, classified as Very Good by the D. O. Rioja’s Regulatory Council. A dry year with high temperatures from May onwards. The rain at the end of September improved the physiological, phenolic and aromatic ripeness of the vines.
ELABORATION AND FERMENTATION
A blend of 90% Tempranillo and 10% using Graciano and Mazuelo grape varieties, aimed at preserving the primary character of the fruit. Pre-fermentation macerations last 3-4 days and post-fermentation macerations are 5-7 days. Remontage and pigeage are carried out daily. The wine is not clarified or filtered until the end of the process. It is aged in American barrels for 20 months, and a further 20 months in bottle.
