Production and Aging

Viña Albina Reserva is made from the varieties Tempranillo (80%), Mazuelo (15%), and Graciano (5%). The grapes come from vineyards in Cenicero, Sonsierra, and Villalba de Rioja. As for the production process, traditional winemaking is carried out. The grapes are selected, destemmed, and crushed for maceration and fermentation with temperature control.

After this process, Viña Albina Reserva ages for 24 to 30 months in American oak barrels, with rackings when necessary. It rests in the bottle for 12 months before being released to the market.
