Elaborated from manually selected grapes in our high Rioja vineyards. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel deposits. The malolactic fermentation brings to the wine adequate maturity for its 24-month aging in American and French oak barrels. Before being bottled, it is clarified in a traditional way. Finally, it goes to our covers where a minimum of 36 months will age under conditions of suitable temperature and humidity until the moment of going on the market.

Climatología

This vintage was marked by a very rainy and cold spring just at the moment of the beginning of the vegetative cycle. This fact made it ripening unevenly and with a certain delay. Thanks to a very dry September and October, the grapes that mature with a certain delay could be harvested in a selective way. A complicated vintage but with good results as there was an exhaustive selection of grape.
